You're missing the symlink "libXt.so -> libXt.so.6.0", and /emul/aout
isn't supposed to have any symlinks at all. Try fixing all that ("cd
/emul/aout/usr/X11R6/lib; mv *.so *.so.? /usr/X11R6/lib" should pretty
much do it), and see what happens.

It my guess that you moved the *.so symlinks to /emul/aout, making the
shared libraries invisible to the ELF linker, which forces everything
to build static. If you really did want to build static, you could
probably do that by changing the order of the libraries on the command
line, so that -lSM follows -lXt, but the correct solution is to fix up
your tree.
