so that logic does look correct. Maybe the configure check for the error return of lex -o isn't working. Do you have CONFIG_LEX_USE_O in your config-host.mak, if you run configure --enable-lex?
If the latter is the case, then the attached patch should hopefully work. That'll force NOT using -o for AIX always, if lex is enabled.
