It most likely is.  I've found a pretty reliable way to crash Netscape 4.6
and 4.7-freebsd (either us or export):  Open two windows, and visit
slashdot in both of them.

Don't ask me _why_ it works, but it does. :)

It causes the BSDI version to hang and chew CPU.  The linux and windoze
versions operate properly.

... I suppose I should get around to reporting this to Netscape. :)
