excuse the digression.  i wouldn't be bringing up c++ if it weren't for
the fact that you guys mentioned it first.  this obviously isn't Flex, i
just thought i'd pimp Boost.Spirit a bit. ;)

using phoenix::ref;
using qi::word;
using qi::repeat;
using qi::char_;

boost::uint16_t len;
word[ref(len) = _1] >> repeat(len)[char_];
