I'm pretty sure that both NetBSD pkgsrc and FreeBSD ports provide
XEmacs.  Talk to their maintainers and see if they're interested in
helping.

I run Mac OS X daily; I think Mike S does too.  Mac OS X will
definitely be tested for the release, as I'll probably release from
that machine.

I can probably resurrect my NetBSD system and test there (probably
limited to build + automated test suite, but that's plenty for this
purpose).

I thought Mike used to use FreeBSD.  Anyway, I'm sure a call for
volunteers here will scare up at least one.
