Hmm, I'll have to think about this.  I'm reluctant to put the
XEmacs-specific code off in a separate place.  I suspect it would make
it too easy for someone to change the common code and forget to make any
corresponding changes in the XEmacs-specific code.  Using nested repos
might make that less of a concern, depending on the specifics of the
tool and how the workflow is set up.
