Although it's always a good idea to upgrade to the most recent version, your
problem seems to be a local one. Those links are in lists and are displayed
in bold (bright) when they are not the current link. The current link is
displayed in inverse video. It seems that you can't see the inverse video.
That problem can be related to how lynx was compiled (probably with curses)
and/or the capabilities of the terminal you're using. I tried that page with
versions 2.7.1, 2.7.2 + Fote mods and 2.8.2dev.16 using a VT100 terminal
emulator and the results were the same in all of them.
