I'm STILL using this version (the server compilation has run into
several snags).  I haven't noticed your problem, though I have found
another problem:  the network sends an entire catalog, but lynx
doesn't change to the subdirectory... I have to z)ap the link, then
-> the link again and, (since it's already in cached memory), the
page turns.

I haven't noticed this problem with other sites, so I suspect the server
software is faulty.
