MoOlit is a "combined" toolkit, with a resource setting for either Motif
or OpenLook visuals.  There is some tension with Sun over this, as the
API diverges from the previously common AT&T and Sun OLIT version.  A
Motif toolkit is available as an add-on; it is not combined in the base
system because the per-copy licensing OSF wants for Motif was considered
to be require too high a fee for SVR4.2 to tack on and still address the
lower end markets.
