wget -N http://lynx.isc.org/lynx2.8.7/lynx2.8.7.tar.bz2
md5sum lynx2.8.7.tar.bz2
493af4c77ef6761e3f0157cd1be033a0  lynx2.8.7.tar.bz2
ls -al lynx2.8.7.tar.bz2
-rw-r--r-- 1 sbrabec users 2432045 Jul  6  2009 lynx2.8.7.tar.bz2

For comparison with my copy:
ls -al ~/sources/lynx2.8.7.tar.bz2
-rw-r--r-- 1 sbrabec users 2436801 Jun 21  2010 /OE/home/sources/lynx2.8.7.tar.bz2

I had this recipe in my experimental repo for some time and it seems
that they silently changed (downgraded?) the main tarball in time
between. I can confirm your checksum with the fresh download.

It looks pretty strange. The new tarball misses one security update.
Maybe they did a mistake.

My (byte-to-byte equal) copy is now available as
http://lynx.isc.org/current/lynx2.8.7rel.2.tar.bz2
