Seems that xpdf and ddd from fedora devel are happy with openmotif21,
but nedit segfaults. abicheck seems to be happy with nedit.

It may be a bug/workaround specific of nedit, if I recall well it doesn't
do exactly the same with lesstif or openmotif. I cannot get a backtrace.

grace (or xbae?) fails:
The software was built with LessTif, but is running with Motif!
We don't support binary Motif/LessTif compatibility.
Use a semistatic binary or compile Grace yourself!
Failed initializing GUI, exiting
