IIRC all the SunOS libraries except libdl.so needed to run
Netscape are available from ftp://sunsolve.sun.com/pub/patches/,
and someone commented that writing a compatible libdl would be
a simple task...
So... does anyone have more information on what would be involved,
and also is anyone interested in the job.
It would be quite excellent to have a 'compat_sunos' pkgsrc entry
:)
