Unfortunately, all of the Netscape builds for FreeBSD are in the old aout
format (why?).  You need to install the XFree86-aoutlibs port to use them.

Some people prefer to use the Linux versions of Netscape, or even the Mozilla
port (which, by the way, really is pretty cool, very Netscape 6.1-ish).
