Okay, how about we just change that line (~1480, LYMain.c) to:

#ifdef FNAMES_8_3
        LYAddPathToHome(LYCookieFile = malloc(LY_MAXPATH), LY_MAXPATH,          
"cookies");
#else
        LYAddPathToHome(LYCookieFile = malloc(LY_MAXPATH), LY_MAXPATH, ".lynx_  
cookies");
#endif /* FNAMES_8_3 */

I'm not sure if "cookies" is the filename we'd prefer to have on 8.3
platforms, but since I don't run one, I'll leave that to someone else to
decide.
