It appears to be licensed under GPLv3 only, which makes it
incompatible for us to include.

It seems to be included only because links/lynx didn't appear to work
a while ago when building under WIndows. If that is no longer true
then I think we can just remove it with no loss of functionality?

Other suggestions, alternatives, etc welcome of course.
Have it installed during setup on Windows?

That might be sufficient. We carry one small delta vs upstream
(r27040) and upstream has changed somewhat since we originally
imported it. If the upstream version is still suitable, and they're
willing to take our patch, then installing it during setup seems a
simple solution.
