The following code appears in revision 1.23 of specman-mode.el:

(defvar emacs-kind nil)

;; emacs or xemacs
(if (or (string-match "Lucid" emacs-version)
        (string-match "XEmacs" emacs-version))
    (setq specman-emacs-kind 'xemacs)
  (setq specman-emacs-kind 'emacs))

Elsewhere in the file there are references to emacs-kind, which is always nil, rather than to specman-emacs-kind.  Naturally, this causes other problems.

BTW, the standard recommended way to test is (featurep 'xemacs) and
rather than store the result in a variable, it's better to repeat the
test everywhere you need it, because the compiler will handle it more
efficiently (whereas if it's stored in a variable, the compiler won't be
able to tell that you'll never change the variable).
