I have the same environment: Solaris 2.4, gcc 2.6.3, fvwm-2.0-pre-33,
running on any of Sun Sparc 5/10/20 and I _don't_ get this problem - I use
Netscape 1.0 - maybe it's Netscape 1.1 that has the problem :-)

I'm trying Netscape 1.1 just now on an ftp site, and I've not had any
problems yet - what action causes Netscape 1.1 to die?

Ben.
