Thank you for your answar.

I configured lynx2.8.4dev6 with the command-line:

./configure --prefix=/tsi/picabia5/asselineau --enable-file-upload \
     --enable-externs --enable-exec-links --enable-exec-scripts


I tested when having compiled with gcc 2.7.2.3 and egcs 
(version egcs-2.91.57 19980901 (egcs-1.1 release)) on solaris 2.5.1.

When clicking the select tag (right key), the box opens correctly.
Then when the value is selected (right key), Lynx hangs and these messages
are displayed:

--------------------
A Fatal error has occurred in Lynx Ver. 2.8.4dev.6

[...]

Lynx now exiting with signal:  11

Abort (core dumped)
--------------------

I tested on basic select tag (http://www.tsi.enst.fr/~asseline/select.html).
<select multiple ...> tag does not cause problem.

Do yeu wish that i post other informations or files (config.status, 
makefile, etc)?
