I think the intention of the patch is to look for a suitable size_t and 
fallback to int if none was found.

However, in my flex skeleton file (flex 2.5.35 FreeBSD) it is defined as 
extern int. That is why scan.c has it as int, because the extern 
declaration in there is coming from the skeleton, not the scan.l file.
