The problem are these files:

These files are PGP Signature files for the respective
2.8.5rel.?.patch.gz files.

These files should be removed from the www/lynx/Makefile:

.for i in 2 3 4
PATCHFILES+=    2.8.5rel.${i}.patch.gz 2.8.5rel.${i}.patch.gz.asc
.endfor

As they are clearly not patch files.

Fix: 

I just came up with a solution to this problem, change the for loop to:

.for i in 2 3 4
PATCHFILES+=    2.8.5rel.${i}.patch.gz
DISTFILES+=    2.8.5rel.${i}.patch.gz.asc
.endfor

Then change SIG_FILES to:

SIG_FILES=      ${DISTFILES:M*.asc}

In the www/lynx/Makefile

This will prevent the "I can't seem to find a patch in there anywhere."
patch error from occuring.
How-To-Repeat: go to either www/lynx or www/lynx-ssl and do a make patch
