Section 3.1 of the FreeBSD FAQ:

3.1:  Where can I get Motif for FreeBSD?

You can purchase Motif 1.2.3 for FreeBSD (SWiM) from the ACC Bookstore, 
P.O. Box 3364, Westport CT. 06880.  1-800-546-7274 or FAX: 1-203-454-2582

This software works flawlessly for for FreeBSD 1.1.5 but has shown
one problem with 2.0 in that the "uil" program core dumps.  This is
apparently because of the way uil is installed, and it's quite possible
that ACC will have a fixed version by the time you read this.  No
other compatibility problems with the programs or libraries have been
found, and ACC can hardly be blamed for failing to work perfectly with
a brand-new release they haven't even seen yet! :)
