As far as I can tell you are correct about CEDET and XEmacs. I'd tried
doing the same late last year and gave up pretty quickly. This thread
seems to confirm that XEmacs is not on the CEDET agenda unless some one
asks: 
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=514E0C0E.6000909%40siege-engine.com&forum_name=cedet-devel

I was an XEmacs user until 2004. I have since switched to using the GNU
version exclusively, and lost track of where XEmacs is. It does seem
that the momentum in Emacs development has switched to the GNU version
in the last decade (?).

I'm personally biased towards making JDEE a GNU Emacs only toolset
because I'm not sure there is a community of users who will make it work
for XEmacs (or even just one user). The final straw is that CEDET seems
impossible to use on XEmacs, at least to a casual user like me, which
knocks JDEE off that platform.

Cheers!
