                    Lynx Trace Log (2.8.4dev.17)

    User message: Trace ON!
    GETCH: Got 0x3d.
    LYReadCmdKey(0) ->= (0x3d)
    LYOpenTemp(,.html,w)
    stop_curses: done.

Happened first time I pressed '=' to go to Info Page.

Early warning.  I'll analyze the dump later.  Last time I had this, a NULL
was being passed to a Curses routine.  Slang and Ncurses tolerated it;
Old Curses got a SIGSEGV.
