I tested with my stock  version 21.4.15 of XEmacs and reproduced the
problem.  What's weird is that the error seems to only occur on
semantic-loaddefs.el!

Unfortunately I was unable to find why it failed.

I rebuilt semantic-loaddefs.el with GNU Emacs 21.3, then redo make
autoloads with XEmacs, and the error disappeared.  That confirms that
XEmacs don't like the autoloads made by GNU Emacs 21.2 :(

Notice that just loading the distribution without doing make run fine
with XEmacs.  Weird.

Anyway, I think the workaround is to do a "make clean-autoloads; make"
to completely rebuild the loaddefs files with XEmacs.  It worked well
for me.
