While emacs can be used to repair executables, I fail to see how this
aproach would fix anything here. Maybe I am missing what you are doing?
Unless you change the way netscape forms the commands, you have fixed
nothing.
It really is not that hard to upgrade to bash 2.01 and libc6 ....
if you follow the exactly the directions that have been posted on this
list several times.
I did it without those instructions, before many had tried that route.
Had a few anxious moments, because I got a few thing out of order. But
we made it, and all works well.
The libc6 issue is no big deal unless you need to do development with
both libs.
