(In case you don't already know, latest Gnus is the one Lisp package I
can't live without)

Red Gnus and the XEmacs 20.0-b34 distribution are incompatible.  Here
is what I did (works for 19.15-b7 too):

1. Remove all the tm .elcs lisp/(mu|mel|t[lm])/*.elc
2. Byte compile Red Gnus with XEmacs 19.15 [*].
3. Symbolically link all the resulting .elcs into xemacs-20.0-b34/site-lisp
4. Byte compile the tm .elcs with
	src/xemacs -batch -f batch-byte-compile lisp/(mu|mel|t[lm])/*.el

Mail-abbrevs as far as I can tell is functional.

[*]  Substitute 19.14 if you don't have a handy 19.15 binary, or use
20.0 if you don't wish to run the same .elcs on both 19.1[45] & 20.0.
