Or maybe Gnus expects an older version of Lynx...

Yes.  Why are you surprised?

I installed w3m and the separately available emacs-w3m package.  Then
all I had to do was (setq mm-text-html-renderer 'w3m).

I think that Gnus defaults to using Emacs/W3 if available, so probably
all you have to do is to install that.  If Gnus doesn't default to
it, the variable mm-text-html-renderer is again your friend.

Note that w3-4.0pre46 doesn't work on Emacs 21, you need pre47.  I
think.
