XKeysymDB distributed by Netscape is almost the same as
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB (distributed by XFree86), and
netscape's one is a little bit older than XFree86's.
I think netscape's XKeysymDB is remained for X11R5 user (such as 
SunOS 4.x + old OpenWindows) who don't have XKeysymDB.
# README of Netscape Browsers have some description about it.

If you have installed XFree86, extra XKEYSYMDB environmental
variable may not be required.

Do you have /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB or can you read it?
