The accept function isn't involved when lynx makes a connection;
it is just one of many that can result in errno = EBADF.
But it could be a number of other functions creating the
problem:

   socket
   fcntl or ioctl
   connect
   select

and the EBADF may actually not indicate the original error but
something that failed as a result of it; maybe a 

   close.

So we need to know which is the first function call that fails;
that isn't clear to me from just that message.  I hope that a
full trace would reveal more.
