Motif is not free software, so there's no port for it in the Ports
Collection.

However, there is a free clone of Motif called Lesstif that works
well in many applications.  It's in /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/lesstif
these days.  If you install Lesstif, you should then edit
/etc/make.conf to include the line:

HAVE_MOTIF=yes

(This line is probably commented out in the /etc/make.conf that
you have now.)
