copy_string() was a clone of the stdlib's strdup(). For safety,
simplicity, and speed, we should use that instead. We introduce xstrdup() which wraps strdup() in a failure upon memory allocation errors.

Replaced CHAR macro with unsigned char type.
Thanks to Michael McConville for pointing out that the old Char macro
causes problems with static analysis. The macro has been removed and
replaced with 'unsigned char' throughout the flex sources. The macro is
not needed at best and was confusing at worst. It was not used in any of
the example files nor was it mentioned in the manual at all.

Switch function definitions from mixed K&R to consistent ANSI C.
flex was using K&R function definitions for some functions and
ANSI C style in others, sometimes even in the same file. Change
the code to consistently use ANSI C.

Supplied versioning information in flex libraries.
Resolves sourceforge bug #182. On OSX, and possibly other platforms, building the libfl libraries without versioning information caused a build failures.

Cleaned up more precisely after make check.
BUILT_SOURCES is now just the list of headers built as per the
automake manual. We provide the list of files to clean to make
rebuilding the test suite programs easier. We then use the CLEANFILES
list in a dist-hook to clean up the distribution that automake gathers
since not distributing flex generated files is foreign to automake's
mindset, but we need exactly that.
Additionally, we locate inputs to the tables-related tests more
precisely. Some files are in srcdir and some are in builddir, which
the arguments to the log compiler are now made aware of.

Changed man page dependencies.
The man page is just the --help output as reformatted by help2man. The
--help option is most likely to change when the flex skeleton changes
or one of the option parsing files changes or the configure.ac script
itself changes. The dependencies reflect this now.
It is still necessary, under some circumstances, to rebuild flex
explicitly before building the man page. In theory, it's possible to
have automake arrange to do this all the time, but doing so works out
to be fragile, given the rest of the build system.

Changed several pointers to istream (and ostream) to references in c++-only sections of the skeleton.
Patched up a variety of expected errors caused by changing istream* to istream&.
Added a stray 'make' at line 545. Oops.
Changed the buffer_state struct to store std::streambuf* instead of std::istream* for C++ mode. Changed interfaces in FlexLexer.h to take std::istream& instead of *. Backward compatibility temporarily broken.
Patched up backward compatibility with reasonable behavior in the presence of null pointers.
Re-added backward-compatible versions of the yyFlexLexer methods that take iostream pointers. All tests passing.

Ignore directories build-aux/, m4/
Since build-aux/ now contains a number of files previously at the top
level, we ignore build-aux/. Therefore, it's not necessary to list any
files that are now kept in it. Also, explicitly mark m4/ as a directory to ignore.

upgrade automake version to 1.14.1

make tests/testwrapper.sh more verbose; find input in srcdir
Since output is redirected by the automake parallel test suite driver,
turn on both -v and -x in bash for the testwrapper.sh shell
script. This helps a ton in debugging problems with the test harness
itself.
In general, the input files are in automake's srcdir and the name of
the test includes the relative path to it (even though that's supposed
to be ./). Therefore, pass srcdir in AM_LOG_FLAGS and prepend that to
the test name as part of constructing the input file's name.
