I think Lynx is just doing what it is being told in this case: the markup
says that the link should begin before the BR and should include it.
If you have
  This is a test of a break in a link: <br><a 
href=mailto:address@hidden";>text</a>
instead, this doesn't happen.

If you want to change this, I don't know of a simple way.  But maybe you
can adapt the complicated code in HText_endAnchor which removes link
numbers from the text for your purpose...
