This hack works perfectly, thanks a lot! So far zero hangs. Pages seem
to also download with less stalling (esp. connections to MS-IIS). In case
anyone is using the libc5 version of netscape make sure to change the line
below:

{
int i;

- dlhdl = dlopen("/lib/libc.so.6", RTLD_NOW);
+ dlhdl = dlopen("/lib/libc.so.5", RTLD_NOW);

if (! dlhdl)
exit(99);


and also to link against libdl.so.1, use

ld -shared -o libnspipepatch.so /lib/libdl.so.1 nspipepatch.o

Otherwise, you'll get an instant segfault :-0

Cheers,

Rafael
