Here's the problem:

make[2]: Entering directory `/home/jim/src/lynx/lynx-2.8.1/WWW/Library/unix'
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DNSL_FORK  -I../../.. -I../../../src -I../../.. -I../../../src -I../../../WWW/Library/Implementation -O2 -DLINUX    -I../../../WWW/Library/Implementation/ -DXMOSAIC_HACK -DACCESS_AUTH  -c  ../../../WWW/Library/Implementation/HTTP.c

make[2]: *** [../../Library/unix/HTTP.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/jim/src/lynx/lynx-2.8.1/WWW/Library/unix'

It looks like the problem that was supposed to be avoided by Jim
Studt's workaround.  I haven't had time to dig much deeper though.
Turning off optimization helps.

Cheers,
