I love Mozilla, but so far I have been unable to compile a working version on my
platform of choice, which is NetBSD.  I plan to keep trying, though.

FYI, I am able to build it, but the resulting program does not work, i.e.
is unable to view web pages.   I've checked proxy settings and there
seems to be some incompatibility in the code.  I've tried building versions
1.0,1.1, 1.2, and 1.3.    Building it from the NetBSD ports collection also produces
a non-working version of the program, the last time I tried.
