The "lynx -< file" method works with this diff for LYmain.c at around
line 1120:

        while (LYSafeGets(&buf, stdin) != 0) {
            char *noargv[2];

            noargv[0] = buf;
            noargv[1] = NULL;
            LYTrimTrailing(buf);

+           if (buf[0] != '-' ||
+               (buf[0] != '\0' && parse_arg(&noargv[0], 2, (int*)0) == FALSE)) 
{
-           if (parse_arg(&noargv[0], 2, (int*)0) == FALSE)
-              && buf[0] != '\0') {
                char *argument = NULL;

Without knowing what this could break, I'll leave it to others to integrate
it.

(sorry, no diffs against the official version cause I've done my private
changes too).
