Terry,
I tried your suggestions (mkfontdir and removed all environment variables
that even closely resembled "*C*") - it didn't help.

I tried to link moz3_0.zip and classes.zip to the current dir and did:
setenv CLASSPATH '.:moz3_0.zip:classes.zip'
netscape -java sun.tools.javac.Main Test.java

Now the stupid thing crashed with Segmentation fault.
What else could be wrong?

Thanks,
-Edward
