New description:

 1. The instructions to run the testsuite are invalid
 unless Xorg is completed. However, LessTif is listed
 as an optional dependency for MesaLib, so chances are
 Xorg won't be completed when you install LessTif, so
 the testsuite cannot be run.

 2. There is an instruction to create the directory
 $XORG_PREFIX/lib/X11, but that directory already
 exists from the XorgLib installation, which installed
 a file (Xcms.txt) into the directory. There should
 probably be commands in the XorgLib instructions to
 move the file into /etc/X11 and then create a symlink
 for for it in $XORG_PREFIX/lib/X11.

 3. LessTiff creates a /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/Mwm
 file that should actually be installed in
 /etc/X11/app-defaults with a symlink back to
 /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults.
