I recently switched from MacPorts to homebrew.  As a result my system now has a more recent version of OpenMotif — 2.3.4.  This seems to have broken medm and edm.

They build fine, but attempting to run them results in:

Suggestions from any X11 experts out there?  I’d hate to have to fall back to MacPorts since homebrew has a lot of other packages, octave being one of the more important, that are much more up to date.

I tried installing and building with lesstif (0.95.2) instead, but that just results in:
