I don't know why Doug is using PDCurses. Because ncurses
doesn't work with -mno-cygwin ?

But last I heard you needed to compile all libraries the binary
links to with -mno-cygwin. You can't use the ones from Cygwin
(like bzip2, OpenSSL, zlib).

And does a lynx binary compiled with -mno-cygwin lack or add
anything compared to one you compile with Borland or MVSC ?
