You need to create a /emul/svr4/dev directory and run SVR4_MAKEDEV.
The SVR4_MAKEDEV file can be found in the distribution in src/etc/etc.svr4.
You should also copy the other files found there to /emul/svr4/etc.

If you've done this, you should be able to run X binaries with your
DISPLAY set to localhost:0

Also be sure to have /emul/svr4/usr/lib/straddr.so
