[Xastir] Fwd: OSX 10.15.7 Macports: configure: error: **** MOTIF LIBRARIES NOT FOUND ****

I suspect the issue is that Xastir's probe for libXm is not properly including
the Xm/Xm.h header in the test program, and the newer compiler in the version
of OS X you're using is refusing to compile/link it.

That is a deficiency in our configure script that really needs to be fixed.  
It should not be hard but I will not be able to look into it until later
today.
