Hmm, the strace isn't very helpful, sorry. There's actually no hint what happens. It's a function inside Cygwin which crashes but I guess you'll have to debug that by yourself. I tried the current lynx 2.8.4-5 in an ssh session, in rxvt and in a console window, both, the fat-fingered as well as the correct link. No crash. Then I rebuilt lynx for 64 bit mode (already uploaded to cygwin.com) and tried all of the above again. No crash. Then I rebuilt the latest Cygwin from CVS and tried again. Guess what? No crash.
