That's a really gross solution.  Here's a very clean way to get
netscape to work:

1. Unpack the entire netscape tar.gz in /usr/local/lib/netscape

2. Use this file as /usr/local/bin/netscape:

---cut---
#!/bin/sh
XNLSPATH=/usr/local/lib/netscape/nls
XKEYSYMDB=/usr/local/lib/netscape/XKeysymDB
export XNLSPATH XKEYSYMDB
exec /usr/local/lib/netscape/netscape $*
---cut---

chmod 755 it of course.
