I'm not sure - his patch was only a few ifdef's to turn on code
for _WINDOWS as well as the existing djgpp stuff (or that's how I
see it).  This was the patch which he posted early last week.

If you're curious (or want to head off a problem), I just put a copy of
the changes that I've got as of Friday in my ftp area:
        ftp://ftp.clark.net/pub/dickey/lynx/patches

That's the first pass (I'll be adding more changes of my own today, as well
as the easy ones from today).
