The current version of lynx is 2.8.2 (2.8.3 in development)
It's available at
        http://lynx.browser.org
        http://sol.slcc.edu/lynx/release
        ftp://lynx.isc.org/lynx-2.8.2

-- the problem with bzero is a generic one described in the 'PROBLEMS'
file (basically you'll have to edit the headers to make it work).

-- I'll check anyway if this particular defect exists in 2.8.3dev.8
