I'm not precisely sure as of yet, but it looks like this is generated
by flex (out of libsial), not anything 'lcrash' is doing.  The problem
is that YY_USES_REJECT is being defined (no REJECTs in the flex code),
so you can try to build lex.sial.c and lex.sialpp.c with -UYY_USES_REJECT
and see what results that gives you.

Just out of curiosity, how are you generating the message?  When you
first try to start 'lcrash'?  And if so, what does your command line
look like?

Thanks ...

P.S.  I don't have an S/390, so I can't test this.  Michael?
