It seem that there no equivalent command in XEmacs. Should we use this
(but we'll still see the compiler warning)?

(defun gnus-button-handle-apropos-variable (url)
  "Call apropos when pushing the corresponding URL button."
  (if (fboundp 'apropos-variable)
      (apropos
       (gnus-replace-in-string url gnus-button-handle-describe-prefix ""))
    (apropos-variable
     (gnus-replace-in-string url gnus-button-handle-describe-prefix ""))))

There are many other warnings when compiling Oort with XEmacs
