The full set of packages is not included on single-disk images,
because CDs don't have enough space for all of them.  The latest
packages are always available from the FreeBSD sites, but with an
older release like yours there's no guarantee the package will work
properly.  Also, packages are compiled with X, so you won't be able to
use the xemacs package unless you have X installed (you don't need to
be running X, you just need the libraries).

I recommend that you install the ports system (if you haven't already)
and install xemacs from there.  

[Something like:
  # cd /usr/ports/editors/xemacs
  # make install clean
