You need Motif.  The official OSF Motif source is not free, and not
cheap.

LessTif should be included with your 2.2.1 distribution, or at very least
the Makefile will download the tarfile for you.  There are several versions
of Motif around for FreeBSD, including distributions by SWiM, Infomagic,
xinside, and others, which range from $99 - $160
