probably the stray bullet is due to some logic that would be improved as 
part of making it flexible enough to handle different style-sheets. Right 
now, there's one hand-crafted DTD built into lynx (KW and FM, of course).
It encodes information by OR'ing enum's together...

If I were working on that slice, it would be better to generate the 
built-in tables from a more maintainable form.  (Handling different
character sets is more useful though).
