Anyway, this takes you less time than me developing the patch:)

Yes, it should be patched as "patch -u"
(like TD dev patches at www.slcc.edu/lynx/current/)
and yes, it is prepared on DOS machine so some fooling may be required
(but my Linux box' patch do repair such filenames automatically
if I stay in a proper directory - most changes are from src/ subtree anyway).

I do not understand what problem you address to, have you a pointer? Anyway,
search internals looks rather complex, I mostly work on a higher level.
