After some weeks of using the ports version of xemacs-19.15p7 and
trying to get it to work in vi|viper-mode, I gave up and installed the
v20.2 release.  With identical _dot_ files,  this version does work.  So
I've got my vi that I've been using forever, and the best of the emacs
suite.  

I'd suggest that we up-rev to v20.X and perhaps let anyone else who
has been head-banging that our port doesn't work completely.

The cause might be that the viper code is not in the load-path, but this
is merely a ballpark guess.  I didn't dig into the code... 

A note of thanks to Gary Jennejohn on the Eastern side of the pond for
confirming this and saving me from surrender!

PS:   If this should be a gnats-pr,  would someone clue me in on the
syntax so that I can issue a bug report?  Like to save others from
this hassle.   -gdk
