Lynx minor version increments

Description

This issue was brought to my attention by "alyx" on IRC...Lynx regularly does minor version releases with small changes while keeping the same name on the tarball. My copy of lynx 2.8.6 downloaded some time ago says it's version "2.8.6rel1.1" but the current one is "2.8.6rel1.5". There aren't huge differences, but it does at least affect the md5sum. It may be good idea to add a note to the book about this, and mention that the md5sum might not always be accurate due to this...

Fixed by changing the download URL. Randy, sorry for stepping onto your ticket, I was going to mention a locale-specific issue on Lynx page, so our changes were likely to cause a conflict anyway.
