I think the culprit on the matter of compiling the latest lynx source is the
bzip2 program. If you download lynx-cur.bz2 and untarball it using the
command line:
bzip2 -cd lynx-cur.bz2 | tar xv
you will find that there are escape characters in the source code,
especially in lyutils.c, and that there are frequent compiler crashes during
the attempt at compilation.
Downloading lynxyyyyyy.tar.bz2 gives a fairly routine compile, with success.
Except that sending an article to lynx-dev using lynx and blat.exe doesn't
seem to work anymore.
