LYNX-DEV Getting proxies to work

The HELP files for Lynx state that proxy support was added in V2.2.  I browsed 
lynx.browser.org for a while and found nothing to contradict that and nothing 
that mentioned anything over and above the standard Lynx distribution that I 
needed to have proxy work.  I've defined the various *proxy variables in 
LYNX.CFG like this:

http_proxy:http://firewall.si.com:80/
ftp_proxy:http://firewall.si.com:80/
...
no_proxy:si.com

Yet, when I try to reach an off-site address, I get:

Alert!: Proxy Authentication Required.  Sorry, not yet supported.

lynx: Can't access startfile http://other.dom.ain/

What am I missing?  Navigator, using very similar proxy settings, works.
