Subject:   JDK useless without Motif?

Okay, I downloaded and installed JDK 1.1.7 from
www.freebsd.org/java

If I try to use any AWT calls, I get a link failure:

Undefined symbol "_xmDrawingAreaWidgetClass" in
java:/usr/local/app/jdk-1.1.7/jdk-1.1.7/lib/i386/green_threads/libawt.so
(libawt.so)

If I recall correctly, _xm is part of Motif.
The page www.freebsd.org/java/ claims that

"These releases are compiled against a Motif library that
is permissible to distribute with JDK."

My question: Where is this mythical Motif library?
The text above includes a link to XiG's web
site which shows a very pretty picture of a
box for sale, but I was hoping to not have
to purchase said box.

I successfully used an earlier port of the JDK
to FreeBSD, but I believe that earlier port (1.0.2)
had been statically linked against the Motif libraries.

P.S. I apologize if this has been discussed a million
times; I don't subscribe to this mailing list, and haven't
seen this problem mentioned on the newsgroup.
