Yes, this problem has been reported before:

http://www.opendarwin.org/pipermail/darwinports/2006-March/032836.html


The bug was reported against openmotif 2.3.0 beta 1, and closed  
without any action being taken because openmotif 2.3.0 beta 2 became  
available:

http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/7764


It was reported again in another bug which may include a fix and is  
still open:

http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/8975


The openmotif port has no maintainer, which is probably why this  
hasn't been fixed yet. Please try the solution in ticket 8975 and see  
if it works for you. If so, I can commit the fix to the port.
