As I implied in a previous message, XEmacs 20 would need a newer version of EFS as well as fsf-compat/timer.el in order to work. There is a problem connecting to IRIX hosts.

It seems fairly similar to a duplicate connection to a Solaris host. That works okay, specifically it does not stall at 'exec /bin/ksh'. I've tried manually issuing the commands over an rlogin and that seems fine. The /bin/ksh fires up and returns a '$ ' prompt. I may not have got all the commands exactly right, though. Maybe I should trace rcp-send-command to see exactly what to type.
