Only if Lynx 1.21 dynamically links with the loader DSO. You can find out by
using the elfdump command as follows:

% elfdump -Dl lynx # v1.21

lynx:

As you can see there is no libpfflt.so in the output, so the answer to your
question is "no". You will have to contact Paradigm about getting a Vega
update that uses the V14.2 OpenFlight loader.
