Strange, it looks as if my mail didn't make it through the first time.
I hope this report is helpful.

lynx-2.8.3dev9 with the setting "character_set=UNICODE (UTF-8)" works
reliable on Linux (lately only tested on SuSE Linux 7.2).  Recent devel
versions from http://lynx.isc.org/current/ will segfault sooner or
later.  My environement:

address@hidden:~ > cat /etc/SuSE-release 
SuSE Linux 7.2 (i386)
VERSION = 7.2

address@hidden:~ > uname -a
Linux tux 2.4.6-4GB #1 Tue Jul 17 09:49:15 GMT 2001 i686 unknown

address@hidden:~ > rpm -qf /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm
xf86-4.0.3-33

address@hidden:~ > xterm -version
XFree86 4.0.1h(149)

address@hidden:~ > locale
LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE=C
LC_MONETARY="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

I didn't issue any configure option.  Start an UTF-8 enabled 'xterm' via
script 'uxterm' (under GNOME and the sawfish window manager):

    uxterm -geometry 80x40 -title UXterm

This is 'uxterm':

#!/bin/bash
export LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
xterm -fn '-Misc-Fixed-Medium-R-Normal--18-120-100-100-C-90-ISO10646-1' \
      -T 'xterm UTF-8' $*

And call 'lynx' (enable UTF-8 via the option menu!):

~/Projects/lynx2-8-5/lynx -cfg ~/Projects/lynx-2.8.4.pre3/lynx.cfg \
  http://www.heise.de/newsticker/

Page down using TAB or the "Arrow down" key.  At the moment it segfaults
before lynx pages down the first time.

Another bug: lynx often blinks (= redraws the complete window?); prior
versions don't show this behavior.

If you'll need more info, please ask.
