My best guess is that it is caused by the message-make-date
function defined in message.el.  It is for only Emacs[1] but
should be replaced by message-xmas-make-date for XEmacs defined
in messagexmas.el.  message.elc seems to certainly load
messagexmas.elc and replace it by running the following section:

(when (featurep 'xemacs)
  (require 'messagexmas)
  (message-xmas-redefine))

Even if message.elc is reloaded, it should work.  So, I don't
see why such a problem occurs.

[1] The %z spec which XEmacs doesn't support is given to the
format-time-string function there.
