 OK, that worked, and Mosaic did seem to install porperly.  A final question: what did

 more-or-less read C, but I've never coded C.  It *looks* to me like the modification
 from   =   to   !=   in that particular line indicates that the situation is true if
 I *don't* have X ver 4, rather than ver greater than or equal to ver 4.  However I am
 using ver 4.
I am not expert on coding either. It simply did not -understand- the = argument.
You would think that the code, as originally written, should have run.
Given your version of X, it seems that maybe you should have used == instead of !=.
I guess that is always an option if you run into trouble, although I installed
my open-motif previous to upgrading X to version 4 and it hasn't cause me any 
problems.

Glad it works -

seems that the problem is with open-motif.
It seems that the error message states what the problem is.
I would go to /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/open-motif and change
the = to != in the Makefile, like it says.

 I installed FreeBSD v4.6 when I received it (weeks ago), and since I had the disk

 I had success installing Mosaic from the FreeBSD v4.5 release.

script logfile make install 

will put a copy of the install log into logfile, then
you could clip that section where the error is and
give it to us.

Are your ports up to date?

When ever I have had problems installing from the ports it is often
because the dependencies are differnent that the ones the port is looking
for. It may accept the older port while installing but actually err
during the make or the install. I had this happen about 6 or 7 times
when I tried installing galeon, which, since we're on the subject,
I find to be a great browser. I had mosiac install fine, but found
alot of display problems as a browser. It could have been a configuration thing.
