I think your original question is better asked at debian-user@lists.debian.org . If the ensuing discussion does result in a bug being found (which I'm not yet convinced is the case), it is best to report it on the individual package through the BTS, for instance using the "reportbug" command. It is perfectly OK to report a bug on a package in stable. When you ask at debian-user, you might want to give a little more information than was in your first mail. For instance: what are the contents of your /etc/apt/sources.list file; what happens if you try "apt-get install xlibs-dev" or "aptitude install libmotif-dev"; etc. Good luck, -- Kevin B.
