Hi,

Is this with the cc-mode distributed with xemacs? Which version of xemacs?

i tend to use xemacs' package manager for all elisp modules - you could try 
updating all of the related modules, it might help:

Menu:
Tools -> Packages -> Add download site,
Tools -> Packages -> List and install

Also, you don't an old .emacs file or .xemacs/xxx lying around that could 
break it. Did you try running without any own dot-files?

Hope this helps,
Palle
