Hi, All and Andrew!

In so far as funky linking goes, according to Mozilla group the answer
is no.  But they said the same thing about their use of zip ... yet this
is the only thing I can find to break (native) zip ... <sigh>

I'd like to upgrade to -current, but when my W2K-infested laptop decides
not to boot (like right now!) I need the relative stability -stable/-PR
offers ...

I'm going to rebuild that laptop tomorrow.  Maybe after that I can go to
-current and try ...

I think I just need another Alpha to test -current with!!! (<- gross
over-rationalization to buy new hardware)

THX

BTW, if anyone DID get it (Mozilla 1.0-RCx) to compile and install, can
they offer it up for a package install?  Of course, the build platform
would likely have to be less than or equal to 4.6-RC ... I only need it
for the ~1% of sites I cannot render with OSF/1 Netscape 4.78 or
Konquerer 3 (not counting java-dependent pages, which is another issue
all together).

:^D
