lynx-dev Lynx-2.8.5-dev.16 crash

[Larry W. Virden]

I have the dev.16 lynx built on a sparc solaris 2.6 system using
Sun's compiler. 

Today, I was testing to see if this version has the same bug that
I reported some months back, found when interacting with our local
library's web site.  Here's the info about the current document before
I select the link:

            Lynx 2.8.5dev.16 (01 Jun 2003) ([1]development version)

and when I select that link, I see:

The problem is that the URL above is not the URL being sent back from the
server.

So, I turn on Lynx tracing before I select the post link.  That's when
lynx crashes!
