The only problem I've seen so far: Selecting "About XEmacs..." from the
"Help" menu signals the following:

Signaling: (wrong-number-of-arguments #<compiled-function (from "view.elc") (&optional arg) "...(16)" [arg view-mode prefix-numeric-value 0 force-mode-line-update] 2 "Toggle View mode.
With a prefix argument, turn View mode on if the argument is >= zero
and off if it is not.

If you use this function to turn on View mode, then subsequently
\"exiting\" View mode does nothing except turn View mode off.  The
other way to turn View mode on is by calling `view-mode-enter';
that is what Lisp programs usually use.

Letters do not insert themselves.  Instead these commands are provided.
Most commands take prefix arguments.  Commands dealing with lines
default to \"scroll size\" lines (initially size of window).
Search commands default to a repeat count of one.

M-< or <	move to beginning of buffer.
M-> or >	move to end of buffer.
C-v or Space	scroll forward lines.
M-v or DEL	scroll backward lines.
CR or LF	scroll forward one line (backward with prefix argument).
z		like Space except set number of lines for further
		   scrolling commands to scroll by.
C-u and Digits	provide prefix arguments.  `-' denotes negative argument.
=		prints the current line number.
g		goes to line given by prefix argument.
/ or M-C-s	searches forward for regular expression
\\ or M-C-r	searches backward for regular expression.
n		searches forward for last regular expression.
p		searches backward for last regular expression.
C-@ or .	set the mark.
x		exchanges point and mark.
C-s or s	do forward incremental search.
C-r or r	do reverse incremental search.
@ or '		return to mark and pops mark ring.
		  Mark ring is pushed at start of every
		  successful search and when jump to line to occurs.
		  The mark is set on jump to buffer start or end.
? or h		provide help message (list of commands).
\\[help-command]		provides help (list of commands or description of a command).
C-n		moves down lines vertically.
C-p		moves upward lines vertically.
C-l		recenters the screen.
q		exit view-mode and return to previous buffer." "P"> 2)
