You don't actually need it, someone added libfl as a dependent library 
incorrectly (or maybe it was added a very long time ago before we included a 
copy of flex in Base).

Edit src/snc/Makefile and delete all of the SYS_PROD_LIBS_* lines from it.
You may also have to change the line
    PROD_LIBS += $(EPICS_BASE_IOC_LIBS)
into
    PROD_LIBS += $(EPICS_BASE_HOST_LIBS)
