OK.  I see it now.  I had to step outside the firewall and do old-fashioned
FTP.  Then:

    binary
    quote type I
    get testfile

Now I see each line terminated with <CR><CR><LF>.  I agree with you
and Klaus: this is breakage at the server site, and not Lynx's
responsibility to introduce offsetting breakage at the client.
