] please do - if that works, I probably should reverse the order of that test

Dates don't mean much. Notice that libHcurses.sl is a symlink to
libcurses.1, and libcurses.sl is a symlink to libxcurses.1.
Under Linux this would be analogous to symlinking libcurses.so.1 to
libHcurses.so, and linking libxcurses.so.1 to libcurses.so. There is
no .a library in sight for libxcurses.
libcur_colr is larger than any of the others. Maybe bigger is better.
I edited aclocal.m4 and generated a new configure script. I have Autoconf
version 2.12 installed, it complains with this.
configure.in:252: warning: AC_HAVE_LIBRARY is obsolete; instead use AC_CHECK_LIB
autoconf: Undefined macros:
***BUG in Autoconf--please report*** AC_DIVERT_HELP
***BUG in Autoconf--please report*** AC_DIVERT_HELP
***BUG in Autoconf--please report*** AC_DIVERT_HELP
***BUG in Autoconf--please report*** AC_DIVERT_HELP
The resulting configure script is not usable. What version of autoconf
do I need to make Lynx work? I'll try getting the latest, or just
modifying the configure script.
