doing a 'make EMACS=xemacs' in the 'texi' directory has been failing
for me. It prints a message saying its loading the texinfmt library
and then quits without doing anything else. I've solved this by
changing the line to:
xemacs -batch -q -no-site-file -eval '(find-file "custom.texi")' -l texinfmt -f texinfo-every-node-update -f texinfo-format-buffer -f save-buffer
This is on a Sun under both solaris or sunos. Am I the only one
seeing this problem? I assume this is more of a XEmacs bug than a
gnus one, but I thought I'd ask...

It's an XEmacs bug, I guess, but I haven't really looked into it.

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.

(load "texinfmt")
(find-file "gnus.texi")
(texinfo-every-node-update)
(texinfo-format-buffer)
(save-buffer)

Well, the '-eval (find-file' hack has been working for me, so I just
re-write the makefile everytime...
