Here's what I see with lynx 2.8.2.dev.7:
Bug Demo. (p1 of 2)
Bug Demo.

Above, the link number for link # 2 is missing. Any of the "?"s may be
deleted from the "length-critical" string and the bug persists. Add
one more character to the string or delete more than four characters
and the bug disappears. The problem seems to be that lynx gets
confused if:
1. a link number is to be at the end of one line with the label
wrapped to the line below that and
2. a link following the link to be wrapped has no label specified and
3. the link with no label is on the same line as the wrapped label.
Also, some link numbers get duplicated and the first duplicate in a
pair seems to have its URL listed as "hidden" with the others listed
as "visible".

As above with label added to first empty link.
Bug still present.
