Downloading and building the latest (?)
   ftp://ftp.invisible-island.net/lynx/tarballs/lynx2.9.0dev.10.zip

I discovered a simple:
   <head>
   <base href="./">
   ...

fails to find a resource on the page.

Like on my page 'http://watt-32.net/dx/', Lynx believes all local
links are at "..". E.g. the last is at:
   http://watt-32.net/R-Amazonia-DRM-from-New-Carolina.png

Why?

No problem in other browsers.
