I noticed that the other day actually. The link in question was one that did not have a protocol in the URI, for example: <a href="//example.com/foo">...</a>. I believe that this is permitted by the standards, and it allows for having a site accessible with the same links over both http: and https: at the same time. (The browser is supposed to use whichever protocol is in effect currently when presented with such a URL.) I did not take the time to figure out why lynx was segfaulting, I just switched to the linux box where lynx worked correctly on such URIs. By any chance was the link you visited the same type? It could very well be an upstream bug -- does a lynx upstream still even exist? I seem to recall reading that development on it stopped long ago.
