There are a lot of things being traced. To make sense of the TRST changes,
both IZ and I added traces recently - mine are for the color-style code,
which probably are most of the output since Lynx writes one character at
a time to the screen. You can omit that by changing LYCurses.c in
LYwaddnstr. (I think it's about time to review the trace mechanism and
make it more configurable - make categories of traces).
(I didn't see my copy of lynx break when I tried this site though).
