System name:		kindness
Type and version:	IP22 8.0F
Display type:		NG1

What were you trying to do?
	use Netscape with XUSERFILESEARCHPATH set so that helper apps
	such as soundplayer can find their resources

What's wrong:
	Netscape finds resources in /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults that cause
errors like this:

Mozilla30: X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
  Major opcode of failed request:  1 (X_CreateWindow)
  Serial number of failed request:  51500
  Current serial number in output stream:  51513

What should have happened:
	Irix should not supply app-defaults when it doesn't supply the
program to go with them.  I can't find an SGI Netscape anywhere.
