Also: $ ls /Users/malcolmp/prefix/lib/xemacs-21.5-b28/lisp/mule/ccl.el* /Users/malcolmp/prefix/lib/xemacs-21.5-b28/lisp/mule/ccl.el /Users/malcolmp/prefix/lib/xemacs-21.5-b28/lisp/mule/ccl.elc Should mule-lisp-drectory appear in the load-path? That doesn't seem to be the case:

load-path is (/Users/malcolmp/builds/xemacs/sandboxen/packages-head/xemacs-packages/apel/ /Users/malcolmp/builds/xemacs/sandboxen/packages-head/xemacs-packages/fsf-compat /Users/malcolmp/builds/xemacs/sandboxen/packages-head/xemacs-packages/xemacs-base /Users/malcolmp/prefix/lib/xemacs-21.5-b28/lisp/)
