Hi,

...

 I have not checked precisely, but probably at least since:

 2005-10-12  Jérôme Marant  <jmarant(a)free.fr&gt;

 	* sh-script.el: Sync with GNU Emacs 21.4

 the function sh-mode doesn't work in XEmacs. It is defined with
 define-derived-mode and nil as the parent. This makes the resulting function
 try to call (nil) as a function. I'm puzzled that this hasn't been spotted
 earlier. 
It surely was working at the time the patch was committed.

...
 A quick fix is to make fundamental-mode the parent of sh-mode, but I
fail to
 see the point of defining a _derived_ mode if there is no parent... I suspect
 the semantics of define-derived-mode in GNU Emacs is a bit different ? 
I have no idea.

Regards,
