Hmmm, well the version of Linux Netscape runs on (1.1.x and above, a.out) 
doesn't have kernel threads, so I assume they're using user-mode 
pthreads?  If so, I guess it would be a bit of work to get those running 
with BSDI, though not impossible...  Well, I guess the best thing is to 
show our support for a native (or at least BSDI-emulation) version with 
Java support, and in the meantime use the Linux version...
