The Motif library the ddd binary was linked against is not binary compatible
with the one it is being loaded against.

Have the dynamic loaded load the ddd binary against the Motif library it was
compiled to use (probably LessTif) instead of the one it is currently being
loaded against (probably "Open"Motif); this can be done by installing the
right Motif library and setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH or adjusting /etc/ld.so.conf
and rerunning ldconfig.

A different solution would be to build DDD from source rather than using a
binary package.
