But what is the POINT?  We aren't going to be touching openmotif at all, only 
dropping it, so moving it to Extras makes NO SENSE.  Moving the things that 
depend on it over so that they can be made to work with lesstif makes some 
sense, for those things that we no longer need in core, but moving openmotif 
just to move it is silly.  If we're going to touch openmotif, we're going to 
remove it.  period.  There is ZERO gain to importing it into Extras.  ZERO.
