Ok, now i'm running gpm cvs version and liblow errors dissapeared, but... :)),
i'm getting a strange behavior. Entries on menus/dialogs are selected
(green color) only when i triple-click on them and they're not executed in
any way with the mouse.

You've told me that cvs version works for you. Is this with elinks devel
version? I'm using elinks 0.4.2. I'll give a try to the elinks cvs version to 
see if that helps.

It seems the bug is in all recent versions, 1.20.0 and 1.20.1. Also i've tried
several 1.19 versions, both in source formats and distribution packages.
