I don't know anything about NSS, I thought that it is used by Mozilla and I
didn't even know that other projects could be compiled against it. Dost the
conversion mean only a recompile and relink? Or do I have to rewrite some of
the code?

I may try to compile Links with NSS, but even if it succeeds, you won't get
good testing with NSS soon, Links always used OpenSSL and it is long-term
tested with it, so if you want something proven stable, use OpenSSL.

BTW. why do you want NSS instead of OpenSSL?

Regarding that UTF-8 --- I have written most of it already for Links-2.3pre1,
just have not released it yet. I could release it soon.

Regarding the config script --- there is a bug that it selects hardcoded
directories first and the user directory last. Easy to fix. Just keep in mind
that the configure script must be generated with autoconf 2.13 --- that was
current version 10 years ago when Links project was started and support for all
the operating systems is tested with it.
