  This won't create that header.
  Please use 'makefile.msc' located at the top of lynx source tree (it's
present in lynx-2.8.2dev16 at least). It contains commandline (and a set of 
defines) that will help to compile lynx (I hope). 
  In particular, it defines NO_UNISTD_H, so you shouldn't have problem with
<unistd.h> you are having if you use that makefile.

  PS: I didn't compiled lynx with VC++, so I don't have any experience with
it.
