Yes really. I ran 'ldd netscape' which confirmed me on that one.

Yes, i also read something about that. For the moment i am not planning on
re-compiling Netscape also because i read on mozilla.org, that the only
code available is unstable after all. U can only download the version they
are actually developing on, with all the risks involved. It might even not
compile! So i won't give it a shot, or i must get really pissed by this freeze! :-)
