automake and (f)lex

Couldn't figure out why automake was including the ".c" file for the lex
code when doing "make dist".

Eventually read the manual ;-) Which said this is what it is suppose to do.

Since the generated C code isn't portable it breaks the normal
"./configure; make" build procedure on one of the target platforms.

Evil hacks are easy to avoid this, but why does it do this, and is there
a "right way" of stopping it, or should I do something clever to make
the generated C portable?
