Here's the fix that worked for me:
   *** a/src/tools/msvc/pgflex.bat   --- b/src/tools/msvc/pgflex.bat   ***************   *** 25,32 **** if "%1" ==
"contrib\seg\segscan.l"call :generate %1 contrib\seg\segscan.c   --- 25,38 ----      echo Unknown flex input: %1
exit1 
 
   + REM for non-reentrant scanners we need to fix up yywrap definition   + REM to keep the MS compiler happy   + REM
forreentrant scanners (like the core scanner) we do not   + REM need to (and must not) change the yywrap definition
:generate      flex %3 -o%2 %1   + if errorlevel 1 exit %errorlevel%   + if not "%1" == "src\backend\parser\scan.l"
perl-pi.bak -e "s/yywrap\(n\)/yywrap()/" %2      exit %errorlevel%       :noflex
 


cheers
