   Yes, that's why he wants it statically compiled!

To make this plainer - I have xmosaic 2.0 compiled with Motif 1.2, but
I *cannot* give it out due to the new OSF copyright which explicitly
states that you cannot give out motif code in any binary form, whether
it be a motif library or an executable linked statically with it,
without first paying some sort of license fee on it.
