Oh, yeah, that is annoying.  To get around this bug, I have the 
following in my site-start.el (I think this will work in Windows too):

;create $HOME/.xemacs directory if it does not exist
(if (not (file-directory-p (concat (getenv "HOME") "/.xemacs")))
     (make-directory (concat (getenv "HOME") "/.xemacs")))
