Don't know what's wrong with the Lisp, if anything. Xemacs 21.4 puts its
config files in ~/.xemacs, and calls them init.el and custom.el(from
customize, not to be edited by hand). Have you deliberately changed that?
I usually set such things from .Xdefaults eg
Emacs*EmacsFrame.default.attributeBackgroundPixmap: ~/aaa/bitmaps/backgroundtile.xpm
Then do
xrdb -load ~/.Xdefaults to start the new settings then restart Xemacs
Most of this is in the Xemacs FAQ
