Now, just in case _some-one_ does read this: As no answer was given here, I figured to download and install Xemacs compiled for my box. Got me xemacs-21.4.9, but configure finished with a error just as well ( /lib-src/DOC no such file..) Searched of course on google but didn't find a clue either.
So I went ahead and pointed my /etc/apt/sources.list to _testing_ and got me (as IRC that version was working fine on my previous install) xemacs from there. Well this solved the problem. Still would like to know: Why the hell compile finished with the same error even after I compiled another DOC file into lib-src.. Why does the version in _testing_ work without a problem while stable gives me the error mentioned in the subject-line?
