The reason _to_ move to automatic allocation is so that when one encounters
file names or user inputs larger than you expected, lynx doesn't die , 
generate an error, or permit people to execute code they should not be
able to execute...

I think _that's_ an exceptionally good reason to make the changes where
input is not a fixed size.
