[cjw44@riva ~]$ apt-cache showsrc openmotif

 ff36f06ae51bd1969a05106236832711 59634 openmotif_2.1.30-3.diff.gz

Taking the Directory: line there, you find the sources in
ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/non-free/o/openmotif/. Or you could
just 'apt-get source openmotif', assuming you have a deb-src line for
non-free in /etc/apt/sources.list. After that, you can tweak
debian/rules to add your compiler options and dpkg-buildpackage the
result.

Cheers,
