 The latest GRASS 6.4 rc6 should depend on openmotif rather than lesstif.

 Why?

  - Because according to the lesstif description "It has been somewhat
 superceded by the openMotif toolkit now that the OSF has open-sourced the
 original reference bits."
  - lesstif conflicts with openmotif but openmotif is a dependency for 22
 ports, whereas lesstif is a dependency for only 1 other port.
  - I changed the dependency locally and GRASS built just fine. The
 configure picked it up.

 So if there are no objections, I will make this change soon.
