It seems you reporting a problem with a broken HTML page:
the actual reference was href="file:///C%7C/www/contrato"
which probably assume a file on author's machine
but not a remore machine. It should be a valid
relative URL against the original document's path
or an absolute URL.
(Also I assume author was from DOS-like system: C%7C/www/ means C|/www/ and I
whonder why not to use c:/www/ instead. I saw a strange code in lynx that
parse `|' after drive letter like `:' for DOSPATH case but probably done not
in all cases and I still have no idea why this path should not be assumed as
broken. Any pipe here?)
Anyway, core dump is a BAD thing and I cannot recreate your core dump with
2.8.2pre.7, could you give more information on you Lynx port:
does it OS/2, DJGPP, Win32 or UNIX build?
Could you rebuild lynx with "make distclean" and try again? Could you build
with a debug option and track out your core dump with a debugger?
