I think the directory you should be looking in is /usr/lib/netscape. The 'executable' in the X11 bin directory is just a nice wrapper script. However, on my system at least, there is no netscape.ad there. There is, however a app-defaults.gz in /usr/doc/netscape. Have a look at this, and it tells you how to put stuff in your ~/.Xdefaults for netscape (at top). Maybe the section on 'Fonts in the widgets' is what you want to play with, so I'd do a search for that string in your editor/pager. This file has loads of stuff in it, so it looks like you can do a lot of customisation for Netscape.)
