you have upgraded to the bind-8.1 or later library, you should try
changing -lresolv to -lbind.
+ On Sun systems when accessing sites that use multiple IPs for one URL,
+ you may experience a core dump. It's a bug in the resolver library,
+ which can be fixed by downloading & installing Sun's jumbo patch:
+ search Sun support information, eg Solaris newsgroups,
+ or see the following Lynx Archive items:

The Sun `shelltool' and `cmdtool' terminals are stupid by default.
In order to get bold text to appear differently than inverse video,
