Use something like:

        XtUnmanageChild(XmMessageBoxGetChild(msgbox, XmDIALOG_CANCEL_BUTTON));
        XtUnmanageChild(XmMessageBoxGetChild(msgbox, XmDIALOG_OK_BUTTON));

If you want, you can also rename the remaining button.  For example, I only
wanted a single "Continue" button:

        n = 0;
        XtSetArg(args[n], XmNhelpLabelString, XmStringCreateLtoR("Continue",
           XmSTRING_DEFAULT_CHARSET)); n++;
        XtSetValues(msgbox, args, n);
