New description:
After installing the XEmacs port from DarwinPorts (version 21.4.17_2),
starting XEmacs generates the error "Error in init file: Symbol's function
definition is void: read-kbd-macro". According to various reports on the
Internet (links below), this is characteristic of an XEmacs installation
missing the base packages. Indeed, a search of the /opt directory for
files ending in ".el" and containing the string "read-kbd-macro" returns
no results.

Installing XEmacs from Fink solves the problem ;-)

Comment:
I'm using xemacs on a daily basis (21.4.21, revision 1) and it works
flawless;
