One possibility is to look at the emacs-version variable:
(defvar running-xemacs (string-match "XEmacs\\|Lucid" emacs-version))
More recently, I've found it more useful to try to look at specific
features and see if they're they're. For example, my filladapt code
looks like:
(require 'cl)
(ignore-errors
(require 'filladapt))
(when (fboundp 'turn-on-filladapt-mode)
(add-hook 'text-mode-hook 'turn-on-filladapt-mode)
(add-hook 'message-mode-hook 'turn-on-filladapt-mode))
So we try to (require 'filladapt) but don't care whether it succeeds
or not. Then, if the function turn-on-filladapt-mode is defined, we
add it to {text,message}-mode-hook.
