Just for the sake of completeness (for the original poster): the
current development version of lynx (anything after 2.8.1dev9 IIRC)
compiles under OS/2 with EMX 0.9c or later.  You need the OS/2
versions of autoconf and ncurses, both canonically available from
http://www.arrakis.es/~worm/.  I have not yet put together a binary
distribution package for the archive sites, but I am working on it.
Unfortunately I continue to be very busy, and am also having hardware
troubles.  When I get it packaged up, it will be on Hobbes and
elsewhere.
