With Tim’s indication of it happening at resizing, I could.

I tried to make a screencast, but you cannot see it there.
I was able to somewhat spot it on a video I made with a
smartphone camera, but any attempt to bring that into a size
that can be mailed hide that again.

Basically:

- start xterm
- start lynx inside xterm navigating to some page with links
  (your bookmark file or ~ might be a good one)
- press cur↑ and cur↓ a little, see no flicker
- resize the window
- press ^R so lynx redraws matching the new size
- press cur↑ and cur↓ and see it flicker
