bug#68165: automake-1.16j on Solaris 11

[Karl Berry]

      /usr/bin/lex --version
    and that command reads from standard input:

Thanks Bruno. I installed the patch.

As for the other (non-ignored) failures, here and in your other reports
today ... I can't get far with such system-dependent failures. Any
chance you have time to delve into them? I know that's asking a lot.
I will look at the logs, but have little confidence I'll have any ideas
for fixes. --thanks, karl.
