XEmacs 20.4 didn't come with a timer.el. No no no no no! Don't do that. timer.el from FSF Emacs will _not_ work with XEmacs. A real quick&dirty fix would be to get the "fsf-compat" XEmacs package, which includes a timer.el implementation that uses itimers. nnvirtual.el should be fixed to not require timer.el under XEmacs.
