Ahhh! Thanks... Oops... The Makefile lists it as FORBIDDEN, due to a buffer-overflow, fixed in version 4.76. The latest BSDI-Netscape appears to be 4.75. :( I guess I'm back to my "original 2 problems..." 1. Fvwm95-2.0.43a Start/popup menu not working 2. Netscape Communicator 4.76 keymapping. The Big Change That Broke These Things was going from XFree86-3.3.6 to 4.0.2. Given the interactions of the various components involved & that (IMO) this is more an "application" problem than a "system" problem, can someone suggest a Better Place To Ask besides FreeBSD-stable?
