The main reason is, that the GUI support in Emacs progressed so well, that there is not anymore sufficient justification to maintain and support a second incarnation of Emacs. Also, Xemacs from our point of view seems to have lost most traction upstream. Please try emacs with X support. It should work for your users. Otherwise, EPEL or other external repositories might be a solution (as other people already pointed out).
