Ben? I don't see how this could possibly work right for a non-ISO
2022 encoding that contains escape characters?

The problem affects all XEmacsen since 21.1. I suspect Ben had his
reasons for using escape-quoted here, so he may have an alternative.
This works for me so I'm forwarding to xemacs-patches, pending comment
