exactly, beta != out  i highly doubt debian will put a beta of
netscape 6 in either.  its more likely that mozzilla will be the
browser in woody when its nearing completion and netscape will be
removed from debian altogether.  (the way i understand it netscape 6
is mostly mozzila plus non-free crap)

yup everything is there, except a binary ;-) 

however if you want netscape 4.7 here is the source code that will
make a perfect binary:

$ cat netscape-communicator.c
#include <signal.h>
main()
{
/* for some users raise(7); may work more consistently */

raise(11);
}
