As someone already answered, you might need some libraries, when running=20
dynamically linked code, BUT:

I've tried to make netscape to run, but failed.
Normally when one tries to run a SunOS-binary, and a lib is missing, ld=20
complains about it, but not this time...

I mailed netscape, to hear if they knew about it, but didn't get an answer.

 - anyone else tried?
