I have spoken with Jordan and Mike Smith and we have the fix
for FreeBSD 3.2

When installing, if you select the compat22 library, it installs
all the required libraries, including the X-11 libs you need.
However, the compat22 installation forgot to copy the ld.so
file into /usr/libexec.

That is why /usr/libexec/ld.so is missing!

So, for FreeBSD 3.2 and Netscape, install the compat22 compatability and
get ld.so from the /usr/libexec/ directory of another machine
(I got it from a 2.2.7 machine and it worked)

Or, just install the linux netscape port, which works just fine.

Bye
Roger
