Yes, it did, thank you.  I'm now running the following:

 - Solaris 2.6 libs in /emul/...

 - Navigator 4.79 (Solaris 2.5.1) from pkgsrc

 I no longer see the DNS problem, though i do have trouble with the
 display.  Navigator complains that it cannot open display ":0.0".  If i
 use "hostname:0.0" it's fine, which is a pretty trivial work around,
 though i'm unsure if it has any significant performance issues.  If i
 manage to find my Solaris 2.5.1 media, i'll try those libs next.
