BTW I have two comments here:
1) The old lesstif port that came with 2.2.2 doesn't include the static
libraries, please add the CONFIGURE_ARGS so that they are built. It
could also built the clients using the local Motif, but I don't know if
the result would also nuke the original Motif. (I don't know if this was
fixed in the update)
2) I have a port that has extra features for Motif 2.0 but doesn't
detect the version used. I desactivated the new features to test if it
builds, but the real port should use 2.0. Perhaps there should be a flag
for Motif 2.x?

cheers,

	Pedro.
