Sorry, I overlooked this mail.  Display charset is EUC-JP
in my system but it is difficult for me to explain the 
situation precisely in English so I attached screenshots 
of lynx.

- wrong.png is a screenshot of the problem, one letter lost.

- correct.png is a screenshot after pressing "r" key and
so correctly displays the page.

I also attached a file "lynx-mojibake" which was EUC-JP
encoded (hopefully) which contained "wrong line" and 
"correct line".

I hope you can see the problem with these but if not
please feel free to ask me for additional information.
