Well, this is the result of expanding a macro in InnoSetup -
{userdoc}. I think those macros are customized to the locale, but
rather than speculating, perhaps someone would like to try one of the
new setup kits:
ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/windows/testing/XEmacs_Setup_21.4.19-5.exe
Worked for me in a german locale (expanded to Eigene Dateien¹).
savehist complains:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "No such coding system" iso-2022-8)
coding-system-property(iso-2022-8 pre-write-conversion)
write-region(1 9592 "~/.emacs-history" nil quiet)
savehist-save(t)
So I have to turn it off to be able to exit XEmacs.
Great work by the way! I really appreciate having an up-to-date
all-packages included install kit.
Thank you,

¹ which turned out to be marked read-only, so init.el loading failed since
python mode couldn't set py-temp-directory (it tries $TMPDIR, but not $TEMP
or $TMP, weird).
