Same behaviour here under AIX 5.1 (using gcc 4.0). I configured lynx with

  --prefix=/usr/local/contrib \
  --with-screen=ncurses \
  --with-curses-dir=/usr/local/contrib/ncurses-5.3 \
  --enable-persistent-cookies --enable-cgi-links \
  --enable-default-colors --enable-color-style --enable-forms-options \
  --with-zlib --enable-prettysrc --enable-read-eta --enable-scrollbar \
  --with-ssl=/usr/local/contrib \
  --enable-addrlist-page --enable-file-upload \
  --enable-justify-elts --enable-nested-tables \
  --enable-source-cache --enable-internal-links --with-x

Greetings

Jens
