svgalib links switches back to console when connecting

Hi all,

I have a strange problem. I use Links 2.1pre9 with svgalib 1.4.3-7.
Each time links connects to a new server, it switches back to the
console where it was run from. When I switch back, it operates normally
until again a new server is contacted (i.e. subsequent requests to the
same server do not cause this)

I don't think it is caused by DNS lookups, as it happens even when I use
IP addresses in the URLs.

I tried both with HTTP/1.0 and HTTP/1.1 and the problem occurs with both
- I think that 1.0 does not have persistent connections (???) - if that
is true, the problem probably will not have anything to do with the
actual connect(2)ing to the server and anything happening after that,
but rather some function that happens before the connect(2)

Also, connecting to a previously used server doesn't cause the problem:
http://a/something	-> switch to console
http://b		-> switch to console
http://a/somethingelse	-> ok, no switch


Has anyone had a similar experience?

What can I do narrow down and help solve this problem?

Thanks,


Jirka
