Netscape still uses libg++

/usr/local/netscape/netscape:
        [...]
        -lg++.4 => /usr/lib/aout/libg++.so.4.0 (0x10c5c000)
        -lm.2 => /usr/lib/aout/libm.so.2.0 (0x10c98000)
        -lstdc++.2 => /usr/lib/aout/libstdc++.so.2.0 (0x10cb2000)
        -lc.3 => /usr/lib/aout/libc.so.3.1 (0x10ce8000)

And most will imho agree on the fact, that Netscape is in some ways
useful :)
