As someone else has pointed out, to get anti-aliased fonts in mozilla,
you need to set MOZILLA_USE_XFT=YES in /etc/mk.conf. Mozilla still
defaults to using GTK+ version 1.2.x for its native widgets, but you can
build it with GTK+ 2.x.x.

Apply the pkgsrc patches to the source for Mozilla, add the following
to a file called .mozconfig in the toplevel source directory:

ac_add_options --disable-tests
ac_add_options --disable-debug
ac_add_options --disable-pedantic
ac_add_options --enable-optimize=-Os
ac_add_options --without-system-nspr
ac_add_options --with-system-zlib=/usr
ac_add_options --with-system-jpeg=/usr/pkg
ac_add_options --with-system-png=/usr/pkg
ac_add_options --disable-mathml
ac_add_options --disable-svg
ac_add_options --disable-calendar
ac_add_options --enable-crypto
ac_add_options --enable-default-toolkit=gtk2
ac_add_options --enable-xft

And then build using the instructions on www.mozilla.org.

I've been using Mozilla 1.6b built on a NetBSD -current machine for a
month or so, and it has proved very stable.
