Seems my headers keep me from posting this, so here we go.

Neither answer is informative...
Mr F. Villa (villa at eagle.bio.unpri.it) helped me out quite a bit so here are
my experiences. One does not need Motif to run xgrass4.1. In order to
COMPILE xgrass4.1 at compile run-time, it IS needed. But there is another
way. Compile grass4.1 without motif. Next grab all the sun4static binary
SPARC release modules and lift out the statically linked xgrass4.1 and
insert it into your compiled xgrass4.1. Works like charm ... on a Sparc10.
Basically, after unpacking the sun4static release, move xgrass4.1 and
xgdatabasse to $UNIX_BIN. <unpack_dir>/etc/x* to $GISBASE/etc. I also moved
<unpack_dir>/bin/x* to $GISBASE/bin. Next you're ready to run.
May I support Mr. Villa in suggesting the posting of a xgrass4.1 binary
release as a stand alone unit. Unpacking 72 1MB chunks for xgrass4.1 is
quite a flow of bytes ...
