Command line:
  lynx -dump -force_html -nomargins -dont_wrap_pre -width=71 THISFILE

Incorrect output (not wrapped at 71):

Removing "-dont_wrap_pre" produces correct output, even though it shouldn't
have any effect since no <pre> is being used:

Command line:
  lynx -dump -force_html -nomargins -width=71 THISFILE

Correct output (wrapped at 71):

xxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxx xxxx xxxxxxxxx xxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx

Note that Launchpad mangled and wrapped my bug report, above, so that the incorrect and correct outputs look the same. Try the input file and the command line to see that they are not the same output.
