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

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.
