Well, it used to.  No longer.  Now all those packages must be added by
the user.  I recently downloaded and compiled xemacs only to discover
basic functions like calendar, gnus, and dired are not included.  

I found this disclaier:

" In order to reduce the size and increase the maintainability of
XEmacs, the majority of the Elisp that came with previous releases
have been unbundled."
