The fink xemacs executable in /sw/bin/xemacs.  The one in /usr/local must
be left over from your GNU-Darwin installation.  Looks like either you
have /usr/local/bin ahead of /sw/bin in your path, or xemacs is just
getting confused trying to figure out which directory to use.

You probably should get rid of the xemacs in /usr/local if you want to use
the fink installed xemacs.
