Comment:

 The comments in the setup file say it is a build dependency on flex, but
 you have indicated in the portfile a library dependency on flex.

 Flex is not so large a dependency. Perhaps we should just dispense with
 the variant and enable this all the time? Having fewer variants is better,
 as is providing a fully-functional port by default.
