I think not yet.

Emacs20 input methods are written in e-lisp, so no separate emacs20
binaries are needed. It's enough to have emacs20-leim package.
(and it may be suggested by emacs20?)

Because XEmacs20s are build in different compile option.
xemacs20-nomule no Mule extension
xemacs20-mule with Mule extension
xemacs20-mule-canna-wnn with Mule extension and linked with
canna/wnn
On the other hand, emacs20 doesn't have such compile option,
(always compile with Mule extension and can not link with canna/wnn yet)
so you don't need to build multiple emacs20 binary, I think.
