hmm - I'd thought this area was working.  Things to check/compare:
        a) locale settings
        b) document and display charsets that lynx is using.

however - checking the page and pasting strings from the lines above the text
field about halfway through the page (in uxterm), I see that some of the UTF-8
strings paste as expected, some don't (I saved a copy of the page, and verified
that viewing the local file lets me reproduce the case).
