Well, Chimera 1.63 not only works on 1.1.5 but didn't require any patching.

Though the authors make the same mistake as NCSA: you can't use a 14 point
fixed font with a 12 point variable width font and expect it to look any good.

Anyway... one thing Chimera supports is external URL handlers. So you could
set up a "man:" handler and handle "man:" URLs. If lynx can do this to there's
no need to have a httpd installed to link outside the HTML docs.
