By installing the newest cc65 snapshot and by turning down some of the
configuration knobs in Contiki (turning off support for HTML forms,
the HTML <center> tag, reducing the maximum URL length and lowering
the maximum amount of simultaneous links on screen), I was able to
compile Contiki with the web browser for the C128 in 80 column
mode. There are a few problems, and for some reason it is really
really slow, but it does work, with TCP/IP support and all. I uploaded
a screenshot to the ports page of the Contiki web site:
