BTW, I am not sure it is a netscape bug. I think it is a libc bug. I did not upgrade Netscape, I did upgrade about 50 other packages including libc to 2.1. THe other system that has this problem also has glibc2.1 and NONE of the systems with glibc2.0 have the problem. I would be happy to send someone an strace if it means anything. Also, I am exporting the display to a remote system.
