I thought I read somewhere that this can be done, but I can't find any
references on how to do it.

There are a couple of programs written for netbsd or bsdi (like Mosaic)
that I'd like to run, but when I get them they report the binaries
aren't executable.

I thought the binaries were in some way compatible.

Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

TIA
