It's right there at the end of your bindings.  You've set "E" to invoke
the EDITTEXTAREA function, which is what lynx tries to do (and is why
you no longer get the ELGOTO (edit-link-and-goto) function.

Since you said you're somehow "out of sync" with patches, I'll email
you a patched copy of LYMainLoop.c, which will allow you to use the
same key that the EDIT function is bound to ("e" by default) within a
TEXTAREA, or (additionally) bind the EDITTEXTAREA function to another
key of your choosing (just don't choose "E" if you still expect "E" to
invoke ELGOTO).
