Who says this? You can compile Mosaic, if you have Motif (or get a
compiled version from ftp.uni-regensburg.de), or you can compile Chimera,
which uses no third-party software, only the Athena widgets that come
with your standard X11R6 distribution.
There are several other browsers, based mainly on Tcl/Tk, which you can
use, but I'm not sure about their respective states. Some time ago there
was one called Phoenix, and another one called tkWWW, but I don't know if
they are still alive. Probably some new browsers have appeared in the
meantime.
