As for XEmacs, message-overlay-get and friends are provided by
message-xmas-redefine that is in the bottom of message.el. Why
it doesn't cause a void-function error (or warning) when building
Gnus under XEmacs, in spite of it to be in the bottom, is that
message.el (not .elc) is loaded by the other module before
message.el is compiled. But now I realized those aliases are
relic of the past and are probably no longer necessary.

Yes, we should use overlay-get directly. So are gnus-overlay-get,
etc. I overlooked overlay.el[1] that is a part of the fsf-compat
XEmacs package being existent since 1997. I'll work on it.
Thanks.
