Judging from your earlier ldd output your system seems to be missing the
basic X11 library packages. These are usually provided by the OS and
CSWxterm relies on them being present. As I don't have any Solaris 11
exposure, I don't know what the relevant packages would be there, but on
Solaris 10 it's SUNWxwrtl.

Once you've figured out which OS packages you need, you'll most likely
also stumble upon the native Solaris 11 xterm package (if it's not
already part of a bigger meta package).
