But it's not the normal cookie prompt, it's the "invalid cookie" prompt,
right?
You can get what you want by adding .yahoo.com to the
COOKIE_LOOSE_INVALID_DOMAINS list.

We decided that accepting invalid cookies should be decoupled from
accepting all (valid) cookies, and should be controled by different
options. "We" = all who cared to discuss the details, IIRC that was
just Brian Pardy and me.
I am currently (slowly) working on it, but mostly on documenting
(at least in lynx.cfg) the behavior, maybe changing the prompt text -
I think the basic behavior should be as it is.
If COOKIE_LOOSE_INVALID_DOMAINS does *not* work, let me know!
