Just a thought, but you might want to add x_cbug@netscape.com to the CC:
list so they can read about all of these problems (if they aren't already
aware of them) for the next beta. I know we did this on the FreeBSD
mailing list when we discovered a timer problem in the event loop that
manifests in the BSDI version running on FreeBSD...
Also, in order to run Java applets, you DID make sure to put moz2_0.car
in a good location, right? That is a loadable module, so perhaps that
explains why the NetBSD version doesn't work right with applets (even
after the mmap() problem)...
