With LOCAL_EXECUTION_LINKS_ON_BUT_NOT_REMOTE set TRUE in ~/.lynx.cfg,
starting lynx with -noexec results in
    Execution links (!)    : [FOR LOCAL FILES ONLY]
in the Options menu.

With LOCAL_EXECUTION_LINKS_ALWAYS_ON, the -noexec command line option
results in [ALWAYS OFF] in the options menu, which is what one would
expect with both.

Also, starting lynx with -exec (with both LOCAL_EXECUTION_LINKS_* set
FALSE in ~/.lynx.cfg), results in Execution links [ALWAYS ON].
The Lynx Users Guide suggests this should be [FOR LOCAL FILES ONLY]:
       -exec
                        enable local program execution
                        (normally not configured).

IE, -noexec should disallow any and all execution links, and -exec
should allow only local file execution links, it seems to me.
