Looks like you got a lot farther than I did with it...  Are you
sure you don't have an old aout ld.so on that machine?  Here's
what I get:

>dmaddox> SimCity
Starting SimCity ... 
SimCity Classic - UNIX / Tcl & Tk Toolkit version 3.6b - Mattes
/usr/libexec/ld.so: Undefined symbol "___error" called from 
sim:/usr/X11R6/lib/aout/libX11.so.6.1 at 0x20160644
>dmaddox> 

BTW - That 'commerce' directory has more old aout binaries in
it I bet...

Also, it looks to me like SimCity would probably run just
fine for you if you started X on an 8-bit display...
