timer-create is part of itimer, which is part of XEmacs core, or at
least it is in 21.4.8.  timer.el loads itimer.  Try a later XEmacs.

Btw, I moved pgg/*.el into lisp/ (and pgg/*.texi into texi/) as all
files with unclear copyright has been removed.  So Oort now supports
GPG/PGP5/PGP6 natively.  Finally.  You can remove the pgg/ directory
now.
