vim @7.3.107_0 +motif No GUI executable available

[mlund (Mikael Lund)]

I have tried to install the openmotif variant of vim which compiles without error. However in the bin directory I see only the normal "vim" executable.

$ /opt/local/bin/vim -g

E25: GUI cannot be used: Not enabled at compile time

although it is linked against X libs:

otool -L /opt/local/bin/vim
/opt/local/bin/vim:
	/opt/local/lib/libSM.6.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 7.1.0)
	/opt/local/lib/libICE.6.dylib (compatibility version 10.0.0, current version 10.0.0)
	/opt/local/lib/libXt.6.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 7.0.0)
	/opt/local/lib/libX11.6.dylib (compatibility version 10.0.0, current version 10.0.0)
	/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 125.2.1)
	/opt/local/lib/libncurses.5.dylib (compatibility version 5.0.0, current version 5.0.0)
	/opt/local/lib/libiconv.2.dylib (compatibility version 8.0.0, current version 8.0.0)

Any ideas?
