I can't give you a good explanation of the differences between the two, 
but I can tell you that just yesterday I downloaded the BSDI version of 
Netscape Navigator and ran it on FreeBSD 2.1R with little difficulty.

All I had to do to get it to work was set the XNLSPATH and XKEYSYMDB 
variables.  It came with two files ('C' and 'nls.dir') that it needed, but 
were not included with X11R6.  Oddly enough, the X11R6 nls directory had 
an empty subdirectory 'C' instead of a file 'C'.  Anyone know anything 
about what that's all about?
