It would be *very* helpful if you would have told us which NetBSD and Netscape port you are using. I suppose you are using the Linux version under NetBSD-i386. In this case you can either remove "options COMPAT_SVR4" from your kernel configuration file or better take the BSDI version(*) because the Linux version only works stable with ancient version of "libc".
