From the logs, it looks like USE_MOTIF used to imply USE_X11BASE, so when
motif.buildlink.mk was created to replace USE_MOTIF, it kept the same
behaviour. In retrospect, yes, I think this this is wrong. We should go
through pkgsrc and find packages that use Motif and see if they need
USE_X11BASE or not on an individual basis.
