Not that fast...
First of all, RH Motif 2.1 is libc6-linked. This is good, but all the
-dmotif packages in the archive are linked with libc5 version of Motif 2.0.
It is going to change soon and I already proposed new naming conventions
for motif 2.0 and 2.1 linked packages. In the mean time I would recommend
to remove lisstif and recompile packages you are interested in by
yourself using your shiny Motif 2.1.

P.S. Alex Romosan mentioned that he has an archive of already recompiled
packages for Motif 2.1
