While at this, some cleanup:
1. Compress the man page by using MAN1, instead of patching up
Makefile.in.
2. HAS_CONFIGURE -> GNU_CONFIGUURE to better reflect the reality as
well as to respect the value of ${PREFIX}.

dumps core under FreeBSD. Users can put "-fno-sjlj-exceptions" on
the command line if they really want to override the new default.

gcc, g++, and g77 with many bugfixes and some new optimizations.

of my .cshrc file pointing to an empty directory under
$HOME/.netscape/plugin :-/
The port is definitively working ;-)

not only root.
Again, on my -current machine the plugins are only detected with
communicator 4.04, if I start the communicator as root. Perhaps I

my FreeBSD boxes it worked, because there a /sw/bin/perl exists). I've now
fixed it for 2.2.10 and now the ports is again ok. At least I hope that it is

Therefore I marked the port BROKEN for now. please report
your experiences to me, I only can test it under -current and

The FAQ tells to explicitely set NPX_PLUGIN_PATH when
