Ah well. Replace with
EMACS_TYPE=xemacs214
(or whatever it is called this month), bulk build, and experience the
same problems.
But that's a general XEmacs package maintenance problem more than one
of the individual packages, I suspect. And since XEmacs as well as
its pkg are in a sorry state of maintenance these days (like, e.g.,
auctex, which is officially supported on XEmacs, not building against
it in pkgsrc), I probably won't bother to pick the issue up again.
