Bug Description

Using dapper's 2.8.5-2ubuntu0.5.10.1, with no proxy or ~/.lynxrc:

hope% lynx -dump http://www.google.com.au/

   Google
            Error

                                  Bad Request

     Your client has issued a malformed or illegal request.

This may well be google's fault -- but I wonder what could have changed in lynx to provoke it? Can anyone else reproduce this?
