Yes, and I pointed out the responsible code:

| 
| #if defined(USE_KEYMAPS) && defined(USE_SLANG)
|     if (-1 == lynx_initialize_keymaps ())
|         exit (-1);
| #endif

I don't understand why it is where it is (before -term is parsed), or why
the call has to be in LYMain.c at all when that isn't done for ncurses.

---------------- with src/lynx compile w/ slang: -----------
$ (unset TERM;src/lynx http://localhost -dump)
TERM environment variable needs set.
$ TERM=dumb src/lynx http://localhost -dump
Your terminal lacks the ability to clear the screen or position the cursor.

$ TERM=dumb src/lynx -term=vt100 http://localhost -dump
Your terminal lacks the ability to clear the screen or position the cursor.
