I used to see that behavior when the DOC file XEmacs is using is not
the DOC file it was built with.  Like maybe you installed 2 versions
of XEmacs into the same tree and the DOC files overwrote each other.
Easy to do.

See lisp/sunpro/sunpro-init.el for a kludgy attempt to support one
XEmacs installed directory with 2 XEmacs binaries sharing everything,
with the sole exception of the DOC files.
