OK, here's the result of trying lynx2.7.1ac-0.2.zip on a DEC Alpha,
Digital UNIX 4.0A (Rev. 464) (don't know off-hand if it's a 2100):

In /tmp/lynx2.7.1, I ran configure, renamed Makefile to XMakefile to
keep it out of the way, and then ran 'make osf'.  Didn't work.
Results below:

% make osf
cd WWW/Library/unix; make CC="gcc"  LYFLAGS="-DDIRED_SUPPORT -DLONG_LIST  
-DEXP_CHARTRANS  -I../../.. -Olimit 2000 -DSYS5"
if [ ! -r ../.. ] ; then mkdir ../..; else echo OK ; fi
OK
if [ ! -r ../../Library ] ; then mkdir ../../Library; else echo OK ; fi
OK
if [ ! -r ../../Library/unix ] ;  then mkdir ../../Library/unix; else echo OK ; 
fi
OK
touch ../../Library/unix/.created
gcc -c -o ../../Library/unix/HTParse.o -DHAVE_CONFIG_H  -DDIRED_SUPPORT 
-DLONG_LIST  -DEXP_CHARTRANS  -I../../.. -Olimit 2000 -DSYS5 -O2  
-DDIRED_SUPPORT -DLONG_LIST  -DEXP_CHARTRANS  -I../../.. -Olimit 2000 -DSYS5  
-I../../Library/Implementation/ -DXMOSA


IC_HACK -DACCESS_AUTH  ../../Library/Implementation/HTParse.c
gcc: 2000: No such file or directory
gcc: 2000: No such file or directory

*** Exit 1
Stop.

Any other info, log files, or whatever, that you'd like let me know
and I'll pass it along.
