It's pretty obvious. The Windows versions had strange problems, you
say. So you "grab" the code for non-Windows for the Windows case,
*away* from the non-Windows case. That's exactly what changing the
#ifndef to #ifdef does.
To humor you, I actually tried it. Yep, now lynx on linux has "very strange
problems" indeed, just as expected. I assume just the same kind of thing
that you must have seen on Windows before the "grab". Lynx seems to hang
when retrieving a document (or even looking up a name), but you can pace it
through its steps by hitting a key (like simply spacebar) a lot.
(Btw regarding a different topic - it's in this strange "paced" mode that
I first noticed a problem with Tom Zerucha's proxy hanging (and it wouldn't
recover even when pacing lynx through). iirc.)
