There is no "nsgtk" script - that's the name of the binary - it requires
some environment variables to be set up for it to find its resources.
If you're just trying to run it inside the directory you built it, just
type "./netsurf".  Otherwise, look at the source to the netsurf launcher
shellscript, and adapt it to your needs.

NetSurf won't use GTK 1, but it does require at least GTK 2.10 IIRC, it
may actually require later than that - I'll check and get back to you.

NetSurf will automatically create ~/.netsurf when it initially launches.
Obviously, it's crashing before then.  It also won't produce a log file
unless you're using the launcher script, as the log is just sent to
stdout - the launcher redirects it to one of the files I mentioned.  Use
the launcher script, and remember to call with -v to enable the logging.
Also try creating ~/.netsurf yourself before launching it to simplify
matters.
