  This was using the pre-built packages on ftp.netbsd.org.

  Lesstif-0,84, also from the prebuilt package on ftp.netbsd.org.

  That's what Thorsten presumably did after the first go-around.

  Part of the problem may be from the way I was trying to run it, since
I don't have the disk space to really install the packages the way they
are intended to be installed.

  Also, I forgot to mention that this version of mozilla has the extra space
at the top of the window fixed (the earlier version of moz-export had that
big gap).
