I give here the first answer with the solution :
This is a bug with Netscape and the X11R6 libraries. You need to
get copies of the X11R5 libs (say, from a machine running 3.2) and put
them in a directory (/usr/3.2D/shlib-- NOT in /usr/shlib) and then call
netscape with a script like this:
#!/bin/sh
LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/3.2D/shlib"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
nice -5 /usr/local/bin/netscape-alpha3.0 $*
The necessary files are:
-rw-r--r-- 1 bin bin 1040384 Sep 14 12:01 libX11.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 bin bin 106496 Sep 14 12:01 libXext.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 bin bin 2490368 Sep 14 12:01 libXm.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 bin bin 139264 Sep 14 12:01 libXmu.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 bin bin 516096 Sep 14 12:01 libXt.so
