I have been testing (renaming C:\cygwin) my Cygwin static
binaries and they seem to work fine without -DALL_STATIC.

Is it required ? I always avoided it for Lynx and a few other
applications to save time. I just move the binary away and do a
make LDFLAGS='-s -static'.

And it seems you now need the cygwin terminfo file for both
ncurses and S-Lang.

BTW, why does the S-Lang binary not print something about the
missing /usr/local/lib/lynx.lss when I use -cfg ?

G:\Program Files\bin>set LYNX_TEMP_SPACE=/g/Program Files/bin/tmp

G:\Program Files\bin>lynx-cygwin-slang-static.exe

Configuration file /usr/local/lib/lynx.cfg is not available.

G:\Program Files\bin>lynx-cygwin-slang-static.exe -cfg=/g/root/.lynx/lynx.cfg
Unknown terminal: cygwin
Check the TERM environment variable.
Also make sure that the terminal is defined in the terminfo database.
Alternatively, set the TERMCAP environment variable to the desired
termcap entry.

G:\Program Files\bin>lynx-cygwin-static.exe

Configuration file /usr/local/lib/lynx.cfg is not available.

G:\Program Files\bin>lynx-cygwin-static.exe -cfg=/g/root/.lynx/lynx.cfg

Lynx file /usr/local/lib/lynx.lss is not available.

Error opening terminal: cygwin.
