Well I found a solution too, but mine is slightly different since I
didn't have the LD_LIBRARY_PATH declared.
In order to get the native version of Netscape to work, declare:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH_AOUT=/usr/X11R6/lib/aout; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH_AOUT
^^^^
deinstall and reinstall netscape and voila, it works :)
Thanks to everyone for your suggestions :)
