Trevor Johnson b2b32546c4 Security fix: update to the latest versions: 7.1 for American
English; and 7.02 for French, German, Japanese, and Brazilian
Portuguese.  These are reportedly free of the onunload referrer bug
(#145579 in bugzilla).

The Sun Java plugin is no longer available from the same places.
AIM is needed by the 7.02 versions.  The DOM inspector and "venkman"
JavaScript debugger are available for 7.1.

Compress generated files with bzip2; omit "linux-" from their names.

The RDF files provided by the ports are no longer needed.

Update references to Netscape 6.

Run chmod to fix permissions on extracted files (for the Portuguese
slave port).

Remove unneeded XXXchecksum target.

Change the configuration process, so that extraneous files are not
downloaded.  This resolves PR 44101, submitted by Fernan Aguero.

This is a Linux version of the Netscape suite (Web browser, HTML editor, mail
user agent and news reader). Using the Linux version on FreeBSD is necessary if
you want to use Linux versions of plugins. Many plugins are distributed only
as Linux binaries. The Macromedia Flash plugin is available, as are the
Canadian and United States region packs, spell-checker, and talkback. AOL
Instant Messenger is omitted (see ports/net/aim).
