Firefox on recent NetBSDs?

Hi,

I poked at prebuilt pkgsrc directories and didn't see
Firefox for macppc.  Does 
anyone know if it builds?

Thanks very much!

cheers

bruce.

Is the problem with the disappearing menus and randomly
resizing/disappearing elements fixed, then?

Firefox on macppc is a disaster.  I would love it if there
was a proper
replacement browser with full JS/CSS support.  Any ideas?

Looks sane now.

The rendering bugs disappeared when Andy replaced the thread
library,  
so in 4.0 they're likely still present.

Konqueror. Works fine on macppc, is reasonably fast, doesn't
crash  
every five minutes and even works right on LP64 ( yeah,
irrelevant  
for macppc but still ). Oh, and the latest version also
passes acid2.

have fun
