It is in xemacs.  If you need to switch back and forth a lot between
the gnuemacs and xemacs, because some hosts only have one and some
only have the other, it's very handy to use the same binding in both.

Exactly -- "or something like that".  It's a comparatively obscure
function vis-a-vis goto-line.  How often do you use the standard m-g
in gnuemacs?  For me the answer was "never".  Sounds like the same for
you.  So why not rebind it to goto-line and thereby have the same
binding in both emacs variants at minimal cost?
