OpenMOTIF is not MOTIF clone.  It is real MOTIF and do not try to touch it
with Cygwin otherwise OpenGroup will sue you, unless you pay them 3000 US$
fee. I had checked this issue with OpenGroup and I was told Cygwin is not an
operating system but a tool which runs on Windows, which does not qualify
OpenMOTIF license.   Use LessTif which is MOTIF clone.
