I have a little more insight on this one. It appears that the same libraries
are not getting linked in on current as on stable (2.1.0 or 2.1.5). For
some reason the math library is getting linked in on stable even though
I don't tell it to and my program doesn't use it directly. Current doesn't
link in the math library. If I manually tell it to link in the math
library everything works fine. I don't have a clue why its doing this
on I/O redirection. Anyway here are the ldd outputs in hope that someone
will be able to find out what the problem is:
-stable:
-lm.2 => /usr/lib/libm.so.2.0 (0x802f000)
-lc.2 => /usr/lib/libc.so.2.2 (0x8054000)
-current:
-ltermcap.2 => /usr/lib/libtermcap.so.2.1 (0x8097000)
-lcurses.2 => /usr/lib/libcurses.so.2.0 (0x808b000)
-lcompat.2 => /usr/lib/libcompat.so.2.0 (0x80a8000)
-lg++.3 => /usr/lib/libg++.so.3.0 (0x8021000)
-lc.3 => /usr/lib/libc.so.3.0 (0x80ac000)

Still no clue on this one though. Anyone else experience weird netscape
problems on -current? It still does this on a 09/01 level of current.
