Those aren't a problem for the compile.  Configure is testing for
various capabilities so that it knows what to compile in.

Your system appears to have a problem linking to the Motif (or
Lesstif) library.  You're trying to use libXm.a, a statically linked
library, and that library in turn needs a bunch of other things from
libraries which aren't being found.

On my Linux box I'm linking to "libXm.so.4", which is a shared
library.  Do you have a libXm.so on your system, or just the
"libXm.a" file?

Try running "ldconfig" as root.  Perhaps you installed some
libraries that the system hadn't added to it's cache yet, which
might explain why the linker isn't able to find them.
