  The scrollbar, progressbar, sessions and session-cache options are now
  enabled by default.
* modify scanning in HTRules.c to only trim comments where '#' is either at
  the beginning of a line, or follows whitespace (patch by Kihara Hideto).
* correct a place where LYStrExtent2 was used where byte-count is needed
  (patch by Bake Timmons).
* modify LYExecv() in LYLocal.c to allow win32 applications to use this
  function -TD

* fix some tidy- and linklint-warnings in help-files -TD

* modify configure script to check if linkage for bzlib and zlib succeeded,
  before defining symbol which makes the compiler uses these libraries -TD
* update lynx_help_main.html to point to "release/lynx2-8-7" documentation -TD
