You are confusing two different sets of changes in the
development code. It uses a SortaSGML parser by default, and
both of your HTML kludges are invalid, so it's SGML-like error
recovery prevents either from working. The mods I made last
May retained support for the PRE-in-TABLE kludge. You can check
that with the development code by using ^V to toggle to the
TagSoup parser. I don't know why both that and the TABLE-in-PRE
kludge are needed, but it's easy enough to support both with the
TagSoup parser, so I did that in the lynx271f code for SSL.
