I'm running XFree86 version 3.3.6 which I compiled from the ports.  I
vaguely remember being asked about a.out compatibility libraries, but I
can't remember what I answered.  Is this the cause of the missing
libraries reported from ldd(1) for Netscape?

        % ldd /usr/local/netscape/netscape
        netscape:
                -lXt.6 => not found (0x0)
                -lXmu.6 => not found (0x0)
                -lXext.6 => not found (0x0)
                -lX11.6 => not found (0x0)
                -lSM.6 => not found (0x0)
                -lICE.6 => not found (0x0)
                -lg++.4 => /usr/lib/compat/aout/libg++.so.4.0
(0x20641000)
                -lstdc++.2 => /usr/lib/compat/aout/libstdc++.so.2.0
(0x2067d000)
                -lm.2 => /usr/lib/compat/aout/libm.so.2.0 (0x206b3000)
                -lc.3 => /usr/lib/compat/aout/libc.so.3.1 (0x206cd000)

It takes a long time to recompile XFree86 on my P5 133, and if this
isn't going to help with this, I want to avoid it.  But if adding those
a.out support libraries will make Netscape run, it seems I got no
choise...  Does anyone know if a recompile of XFree will be of any help?
