You mean you can't even successfully compile one single .c file?
That's weird.  How much swap space have you got?

There are great sites, and among them are NetBSD/amiga archive sites,
e.g. ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-Amiga/contrib/.  NetBSD/mac68k
should have no problem running binaries compiled for NetBSD/amiga,
unless they are port dependent (like X server which has to access
graphics hardware).  There isn't lynx 2.7, but I see 2.6 there instead.

Good luck,
