    I  found  it  works  on  FreeBSD with 4.6 too but: only with (default)
    iso-8859-1  encoding.  It  doesn't  work  if  the  page  has different
    codepage,  for example iso-8859-2 or iso8859-15 or koi8-r. So it seems
    to be the problem with Netscape translation table for this codepage.
    
    To  patch server quickly you can set up different default codepage for
    your documents.
