I don't know who built the JDK RPM, but the JDK does not need libXm.so.2
to run since it is statically linked with the MetroLink Motif 2.1 release.
Now, when running the dynamic (DYN_JAVA=true) version, then it will need
that library.
You should be able to install the JDK just fine and run it in its normal
configuration. (Note that if the RPM does not include the statically
linked JDK you may wish to grab the tar archive which does include the
fully release.)
