Netscape 4.08 here, never had VM_STACK being used before.... most recent kernel.
I booted with a new kernel to find out netscape sig11d on start-up. Then I
booted /kernel.old and Netscape worked fine. So I booted a brand-new kernel
without VM_STACK and Netscape runs. Go figure? :) The old kernel had not
VM_STACK. Anyhoo, I'm making world in hopes of getting rid of that damned ps
error.
