lynx-dev PSRC & source mode: chartrans stages problem

Experiment with 2.8.2dev4 -

load an html file with META charset and switch "\" to source mode.
Now press ^R to reload:

(1) In -prettysrc case you got a broken document
(charset will be assumed by lynx from assume_charset or assume_local_charset,
not from a META charset which was previously pushed with LYPushAssumed()
so you got a problem with 8bit documents when assume_charset != META charset).

(2) Without -prettysrc you got a document handled properly
via META charset assumption. Now if you press ^R again
you will got a broken document.

More interestingly, behaviour (2) was present in lynx 2.7.1ac90+ series
and now with recent dev versions, but lynx 2.8.1rel allow us
pressing ^R as may time as we want without a problem.
So something was broken with 2.8.2dev series for lynx chartrans stages,
and something not implemented in prettysrc mode.

Saying the truth, Chartrans Stages code too dificult to spell in out
and (1)-(2) problem hardly visible in real life unless you doing tests
or looking the '=' info page too often.
