1)  It looks like you have the wrong version of the Development Tools--the
'C compiler cannot create executables' error usually happens when using the
10.0.x Tools with OS 10.1.x .  Get the December 2001 Dev Tools.

2)  If your fink installation has a database (.info) file for lynx-2.8.2,
then you can do 'fink install lynx-2.8.2'.  That being said, I doubt that
you have a .info file for 2.8.2, and in this case fink won't touch it.
