That's one of the aout compat libraries:

plasm:~:% ldd /usr/local/lib/netscape/communicator-4.76.bin 
/usr/local/lib/netscape/communicator-4.76.bin:
        -lXt.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libXt.so.6.0 (0x20b61000)
        -lXmu.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libXmu.so.6.0 (0x20b9d000)
        -lX11.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libX11.so.6.1 (0x20bad000)
        -lXext.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libXext.so.6.3 (0x20c3e000)
        -lSM.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libSM.so.6.0 (0x20c47000)
        -lICE.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libICE.so.6.3 (0x20c4f000)
        -lg++.4 => /usr/lib/compat/aout/libg++.so.4.0 (0x20c60000)
        -lstdc++.2 => /usr/lib/compat/aout/libstdc++.so.2.0 (0x20c9c000)
        -lm.2 => /usr/lib/compat/aout/libm.so.2.0 (0x20cd2000)
        -lc.3 => /usr/lib/compat/aout/libc.so.3.1 (0x20cec000)

You'll need to install the XFree86-aoutlibs port and the compat22
libraries. The compat22 libs can either be installed using
/stand/sysinstall, or as part of a buildworld/installword if you add
``COMPAT22 = YES'' to your /etc/make.conf file.  You should be able to
run ldd as above and see that all the required shlibs are located.

You shouldn't need to touch FORCE_PKG_REGISTER for normal use ---
chances are that you've got netscape installed OK already, but it's
the dependencies that are giving you grief.
