Fixed:

https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/commit/f947f65dcab13e251bde4223352158a6c5b5afc7
https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/commit/bd43496f7f42178f9263b56f846a330a2d490f5c

It should be available in MacPorts within an hour.

I've also sent an email to the developer of lynx asking them to release a new stable version of lynx containing this fix.
