Try 
 ls -l /usr/X11R6/lib/libXm.so

It is almost certainly a symbolic link to something else.  Check to see if
*that* file exists.  If it, in turn, is a symbolic link to something else, 
repeat.

My bet is you've got a busted link somewhere.  Don't know why it doesn't screw
up the link with motif, though.
