They never have ended up at XEmacs in the past. Do you have a reason
to suppose that will change now?

Nobody has yet suggested that. There are still 1.25 bugs outstanding,
which I for one would like to try to fix, or at least make less
annoying, before changing defaults anywhere.
By the way, balloon-help is a packaged library; none of the fixes
require changes to XEmacs core.[1] All users of XEmacs 21.x (x >= 1)
need to do is update to the improved version of the edit-utils package
once it is released.
Footnotes:
[1] Of course fixing a crash does, but without a stack trace, there
will be no fix in the short run.
