Yup. XEmacs command line processing needs some work. Try brute
forcing it with the attached files, and calling them:
xemacs -batch -l xemacs-hack-gnusman.el
xemacs -batch -l xemacs-hack-messageman.el
[It's not pretty but it seems to work]
;; Using the mark to pass bounds this way
;; is kludgy, but it's not worth fixing. -- rms.
