Flex c++ bug

Automake does not seem to differenciate between flex generated c++ files and c 
files

Here is the problem
address@hidden traditional $ make
flex -+  traditional.l++ && mv lex.yy.c traditional.c++
mv: cannot stat `lex.yy.c': No such file or directory
make: *** [traditional.c++] Error 1

flex outputs foo.l compiled with a -+ flag as lex.yy.cc

the offending makefile line
.l++.c++:
        $(LEX) $(AM_LFLAGS) $(LFLAGS) $< && mv $(LEX_OUTPUT_ROOT).c $@

I'm using
automake (GNU automake) 1.4-p5
compiled from gentoo packages.

I am not on the list so if anyone else has this bug or if there is a fix 
please CC me.
