Thanks, I compiled a binary with it.

I noticed a minor (apparently) problem with nested-tables, 
which was also present in a binary I compiled yesterday using 
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mingw/pdcurses-2.6.0-2003.07.21-1.exe

To reproduce, go to http://www.netvasco.com.br/

Notice the highlighted text. No problem on Linux.

I uploaded the new binary to http://www.pervalidus.net/tmp/ as 
lynx-new.zip.

Yes, it was without lynx.lss in place, but that didn't help.

Maybe Thomas will know how to fix it.
