Nope.  This is a box that was a virgin install of 5-CURRENT a month ago.
I had to install the compat20 and compat21 dists, along with doing a
``pkg_add -r XFree86-aoutlibs''.  The Tk is 8.0.5.

Actually you're probably getting farther than I am.  I believe I'm
bombing so early in starting Tk, I'm not really getting to the point you
are.  What does `ldd /usr/local/lib/SimCity/res/sim'' report?

Maybe, but I'm not going to dink with my X server config. ;-)
Mabye I'll try to find another box to try this on.
