Thread: Shutting up flex output warnings

Would it be appropriate to apply the following patch to eliminate the
warnings generated by the flex output?

Can you make it apply only to the flex output file, and not to all the
other C files in those directories?  I'm not thrilled about losing this
error check on plpgsql and ecpg/preproc as a whole.
