	I'd _like_ to do that, unfortunately though virtually all of it
	is sharable, some is not. For example between the sunos and bsdi
	communicator 4.5 distributions:

    Differing files:
	netscape	The main binary - fine, libexec
	vreg		Registration program - libexec should be ok
	Netscape.ad	App defaults - do not want to install in X11
	movemail	Hmm - probably expects this in $MOZILLA_HOME

    Only in sparc version:
	netscape_dns		No worries
	libjsd.so.1.0
	dynfonts/libTrueDoc.so
	plugins/libnullplugin.so

	I think spraying the files around is going to cause more pain than
	its worth - particularly as netscape seems so happy with $MOZILLA_HOME
