I've never seen that.  I presume it would go away if you remove
your /usr/X11R6 installation and reinstall it, since this failure
is not there for clean installations -- it must be due to some
stale directory on your system which netscape is detecting, which
does not have any files in it.  If you ktrace the netscape binary
you should be able to find where it's looking.
