I've further investigated it, and it looks like this problem occurs when
configuring lynx with --disable-full-paths.
As an unrelated extra observation, the --libdir= and --includedir= config
options seem to be ignored.
My slang libs are in /usr/local/lib, and they are not found during the
final linking of the binary (they ought to be even without --libdir=,
since configure finds and uses it).
