Ok, that gets configure working and it builds.  It looks as if the
script tests for emacs, but not for xemacs, so I still needed to use
an EMACS=xemacs argument for the make.  A make install (which looks
like it should adjust some permissions and install the info files in
/usr/local/info) fails for want of mkinstalldirs:

em:/usr/local/lib/xemacs/qgnus#make EMACS=xemacs install
cd lisp && make EMACS=xemacs install
xemacs -batch -q -no-site-file -l ./dgnushack.el -f dgnushack-compile
Loading ./lpath.el...
/bin/sh ../mkinstalldirs 
../mkinstalldirs: Can't open ../mkinstalldirs
*** Error code 2

Stop.
*** Error code 1

Stop.
em:/usr/local/lib/xemacs/qgnus#

I've always wanted to be a dilettante, but I've never quite been ready
to make the commitment.
