Correction, 4.77 supports the mouse wheel, just takes a bit of manual
modification.
I run 'Netscape 4.77 [en]-20010326' here, at first I got a bit annoyed
because I could not use the mouse wheel and switched browsers. But due to
testing reasons I still needed netscape. After a bit of searching I found
A working .xdefaults config that worked fine.
Heres a copy of the text file I **created** (it didnt exist) in my home
dir:

Hope that helps out in the problem.
BTW: I run X4, with a USB IntelliMouse set up in XF86Config-4 like this:
-- 8<--
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Optical Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
# Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Device" "/dev/gpmdata"
# Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "6 7"
Option "Buttons" "7"
EndSection
