Thanks for this offer. I have downloaded current sources via svn, but am 
not sure how to proceed with compilation. I was expecting makefiles etc 
but found only cmakelists.txt and tried running "cmake ." This however 
gave an early error : "Unknown CMake command "ADD_FLEX_FILES" ". Could 
be that I do not have the right cmake version or other supporting 
development tools.

Is there a place where all the requirements are written up and a simple 
guide to compiling is present ?

I have previously compiled version 1.4 from a tar.gz tarball, but I 
think that was (a) on another machine that perhaps had more up to date 
cmake and (b) the tarball I think did include some instructions which is 
perhaps missing from the svn checked-out sources.

Thanks
