I believe this was fixed in a very old version.

lynx-cur (2.8.6-9) unstable; urgency=low

  * This is of 2.8.6dev.11
  * syslog'ing of URLs didn't seem to be an appropriate default setting and
    it could be enabled with a setting in lynx.cfg or a command line option
    if lynx was compiled with --enable-syslog.  So I decided to compile lynx 
    with --enable-syslog but to set "SYSLOG_REQUESTED_URLS:FALSE" in lynx.cfg
    You can enable it with a command line option "syslog-urls=on" or with
    editting lynx.cfg appropriately.  (Closes: #288480)

I hear this for the first time.  On my system, "lynx -trace"
outputs Lynx.trace and it shows me;

LYNX_SIG_FILE set to '/home/kohda/.lynxsig'
HTMLDTD: Copying strict DTD element info of size 6664, 119 * 56
Loading cfg file '/etc/lynx-cur/lynx.cfg'.
opening config file /etc/lynx-cur/lynx.cfg
UCGetLYhndl_byAnyName(iso-8859-1)

and so I'm pretty sure that lynx opend /etc/lynx-cur/lynx.cfg

I have no clue at present but don't you set any private
settings or environment variables etc. for lynx?

Regards,                          2009-7-23(Thu)
