That is exactly what I'm saying.  As a matter of fact, I used a shell script
for it which looks like this:

#!/usr/local/bin/bash
make                     \
  distclean
./configure              \
  --without-gcc          \
  --with-x-toolkit=motif \
  --with-xpm             \
  --with-jpeg            \
  --with-tiff            \
  --with-gif             \
  --with-png             \
  --with-x

I've been using this script for all the pretest versions since
21.0.103 as well as for version 21.1 and as far as I know, nothing has
changed on my system (i.e. same version of motif).  But I cannot be
sure about that since I do not maintain all the software on my system.

That will be a no.
