Do you know how this /usr/athena directory was created?

How do you have X installed on your system? If you run the install
script on a freshly-installed system, if will create a symlink from
/usr/X11R6 into AFS-land and from /usr/X11 to X11R6. Since we have
the Motif binaries installed in AFS-land, mwm will find them there.
Also, /usr/athena/include/X11 is a symlink to /usr/X11/include, so the
"question" and "arrow" bitmaps are also expected to be found in the
X11 distribution. I don't know if we added these to the distribution
ourselves, or if it's something in XFree86 3.1 that's not in your
installation of X.
If you have a different version of X11 installed, try copying the
Motif libraries locally and copying the "question" and "arrow" bitmaps
into /usr/X11/include/X11/bitmaps. The AFS path to our version of the
X11 distribution is /afs/sipb.mit.edu/system/i386_nbsd1/usr/X11R6.
