The following code is what I use. _XmVersionString is defined in the
library, and will be available after initialization.

#ifdef __linux
/* final LessTif Version checking */
extern char _XmVersionString[];
if (strcmp(XmVERSION_STRING,_XmVersionString)!=0) {
char buf[BUFSIZ];
sprintf(buf,
"This version of spock was compiled with %s.\n"
"The version on this system is %s.\n"
"This may cause difficulties and random crashes when using menus\n"
"or dialog boxes.\n\n"
"For best performance, you should install %s,\n"
"available from www.lesstif.org.\n",
XmVERSION_STRING,_XmVersionString,XmVERSION_STRING);
SPError(buf);
}
#endif
