The commented-out values correspond (or should...) to the default values
compiled into lynx.

The data in the COLOR_STYLE file is organized differently from lynx.cfg

The "oldlynx" script (which may be part of the package) suppresses the
color-style file, which makes it look very close to the old version.
For reference (the script):
#!/bin/sh
# invoke lynx built with color-style, overriding the color options to use the
# non-color-style scheme -TD
my_cfg=${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/lynxcfg$$
trap "rm -f $my_cfg" 0 1 2 5 15
rm -f "$my_cfg"
echo "DEFAULT_COLORS:off" >>$my_cfg
if test -n "$LYNX_CFG" ; then
echo "include:$LYNX_CFG" >>$my_cfg
fi
echo "COLOR_STYLE:" >>$my_cfg
echo "NESTED_TABLES:off" >>$my_cfg
LYNX_CFG=$my_cfg
export LYNX_CFG
unset LYNX_LSS
${LYNX_PROG-lynx} "$@"
