Yes, it is.


Motif Licensing -- Terms and Conditions, STANDARD SUPPLEMENT
http://www.camb.opengroup.org/tech/desktop/ordering/motifTC.htm

d) The term "Run Time Copy" means a copy of any subset of routines from
the "libXm" or "libMrm" library files in object code form which is
statically linked within an application program and executable only
with that single application. That Run Time Copy must not contain any
portion of either the Window Manager or the user Interface Language
component, or a shared library of the Licensed Program.
// BEGIN EMPHASIS
Further, it
must not enable generation of any portion of the Licensed Program in
either source or object code form, nor may it allow any other
applications to use the Licensed Program. For example, a software
vendor who statically links routines form the "libXm" or libMrm"
library files of the Licensed Program in object code form to run only
within its application and with no other application has created an
acceptable Run time Copy. 
// END EMPHASIS
