I added LYNX_DATE_LEN and a couple of other symbols to userdefs.h
(since that's where the automatically-generated version number resides).
It appears that you have simply substituted your old userdefs.h for
the one in the distribution.

(It's simpler to apply the changes as a patch if you _must_ customize
userdefs.h -- though it's been a while since someone pointed out a feature
that's not addressed in the configure-script).  Probably during 2.8.2
development, we should split-out the remaining portion that's really
user-customizable...
