wp8 runs fine on my slink system. Maybe you need to install some more
libc5-compat packages. Wp8 needs the following:

$ ldd /usr/local/lib/wp8/wpbin/xwp     
        libXt.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libXt.so.6 (0x4000e000)
        libX11.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libX11.so.6 (0x40050000)
        libXpm.so.4 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libXpm.so.4 (0x400ee000)
        libm.so.5 => /lib/libm.so.5 (0x400fc000)
        libc.so.5 => /lib/libc.so.5 (0x40105000)
        libSM.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libSM.so.6 (0x401c3000)
        libICE.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libICE.so.6 (0x401cc000)

These are found in the following packages:

xlib6: /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libXt.so.6
xlib6: /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libX11.so.6
xpm4.7: /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libXpm.so.4
libc5: /lib/libm.so.5
libc5: /lib/libc.so.5
xlib6: /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libSM.so.6
xlib6: /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libICE.so.6
