        Remember that this will also affect the User-Agent HTTP header
Lynx sends out, which is bad.  HTTP servers won't care about the
version details, and it'll split the Lynx vote on sites like
browserwatch.com .  Either LYNX_VERSION should be left alone, or
LYMain.c should be temporarily wired to Lynx/2.7, or there should be a
PATCHLEVEL #define which is used in LYShowInfo.c, but not in LYMain.c.
