If you're going to "borrow" the packages installed by the MacPorts port, give ./configure the --with-system-packages=$ROOT, where ROOT is the directory containing {xemacs,mule,site}-packages directories. Probably it's /opt/local/share/xemacs. Check that /usr/local/bin is on PATH. > Would that cause a problem with the official port xemacs? No, unless your MacUser friend put MacPorts in /usr/local. But that seems very unlikely. And if they did, you can just put XEmacs somewhere else, for example --prefix=/usr/local/xemacs. This also has the benefit that if the prefix is used only for that version of XEmacs, uninstall is just rm -rf /usr/local/xemacs. If you do this, you need to add /usr/local/xemacs/bin to PATH.
