It's probably not a problem whether it's a common platform or not -
but usually whether a member of the development team (which mostly
supply the binaries we distribute) picks up things. Supplying binaries
is not our primary intention - as a matter of fact there are nowadays too many
systems which one had to take care of .
As a developer I would also encourage people to build LessTif themselves.
We do everything to make it build&install out of the box - even on strange
systems. And at least on a modern machine it should build in just a few
minutes. As an advantage you get a binary exactly matching your system
libraries and ... in some rare cases we might get feedback about
remaining portability issues ...
