Yes all version of Mosaic (and for that matter Netscape as well) need
Motif.

As for how versions exist? Well Motif 1.x will compiler under NetBSD/arm32
straight out of the box so to speak (if you follow the 6 cavat lines in
the README file). 

However there is a catch. Whilst you can distribute programs built with
Motif, you cannot distribute a library (or .a version) of Motif without a
very expensive license. 

So if someone who has a motif license builds Mosaic for you (with Motif
statically linked) then all is okay.

However to build it yourself without the license... no chance... (Although
a do remember a very old Xaw version of Mosaic floating around....)
