>Description:
	
installing www/navigator pulls in multimedia/ns-flash too.
Version 7.x of the ns-flash plugin is no longer compatable with the
navigator 4.80 binary for Linux.  When the flash plugin is installed
navigator complains on startup with:
	ERROR: /usr/pkg/lib/netscape/plugins/flashplayer.xpt: invalid ELF header
	Cant load plugin /usr/pkg/lib/netscape/plugins/flashplayer.xpt. Ignored.
and dumps core.

The same is probably true for the communicator binary.

>How-To-Repeat:
	cd pkgsrc/www/navigator && make install
>Fix:
Don't automatically install the ns-flash package when installing navigator/
communicator.  And make ns-flash>7 conflict with navigator/communicator <= 4.80.
Maybe bring back an older version of the plugin.
