Doh, of course. I'll fix that.

(Well, in truth, experimentation here seems to indicate that flex
needs to be invoked with -d for this to actually do anything; I have
locally build packages here with the patch as-is that do not emit
debugging information to stderr, but when testing I had enabled it and
got useful debugging info. Which is why it accidentally got left in.)
