Comparing F10 lesstif and PlanetCCRMA/F10 openmotif, the library sonames 
are not a problem:

$ rpm -q --provides openmotif
libMrm.so.4()(64bit)
libUil.so.4()(64bit)
libXm.so.4()(64bit)
openmotif = 2.3.0-0.3.fc10.ccrma
openmotif(x86-64) = 2.3.0-0.3.fc10.ccrma
$ rpm -q --provides lesstif
libDtPrint.so.1()(64bit)
libMrm.so.2()(64bit)
libUil.so.2()(64bit)
libXm.so.2()(64bit)
lesstif = 0.95.0-26.fc10

However, the -devel packages conflict with each other (library .so 
files, header files, manpages) and fixing that would not be easy.
