from README for the latest release 2-8-1 :

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

   We believe Lynx works properly for the Year 2000 issues, since it does
   not store dates in 2-digit form.  Since it must communicate with
   a wide range of web servers, it interprets dates in a variety of formats.
   In particular, if Lynx receives a date with a 2-digit year,
   it assumes that values less than 70 are in the range 2000-2069.
               
version 2-8-2 will be released in the next few weeks:
you can get them from  www.slcc.edu/lynx/release .

as free software, Lynx is for use entirely at the user's risk,
but the volunteer developers try to make sure it is free from bugs.
