Yeah,
the configure script doesn;t find flext, so when you compile, linking to the flext library breaks. same thing happens to me sometimes. I try to configure my /etc/ld.so.conf so that it points to my pd dir under /usr/local/lib/pd, but I can only get flext to register for compiling if I install it under /usr/local/lib
try puting the flext.so's under /usr/local/lib and compiling. that should work.
I would love to solve this issue though. also don't know the real fix. could certainly by that my configure script is wrong, but I can't see where. maybe there is some issue with the flext library on linux.

I have flext 0.4.6 installed, but the ./configure for readanysf~ gives this:
checking for AddOutSignal in -lflext... no
you want to link to FLEXT dynamicaly, a very good idea, but... ..configure couldn't find the FLEXT lib. Taking your word for it. This seems to be normal on linux. Don't know why it happens. just make sure you have the libflext.so in one of the paths listed under /etc/ld.so.conf (for linux). and, as root do ldconfig
and the compile gives this:
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu/3.2.3/../../../../powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lflext collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [readanysf~.pd_linux] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory

and I have run ldconfig since changing it.
[I am running Gentoo. Does anyone know which file in /etc/env.d updates this?]
I also tried with Flext 0.4.7 with no difference in errors. I'll try an older version of readnaysf~ and see if that works.
