Weird.  I'd also expect them to work if you put it into
~/.xemacs/init.el ... not that big a deal, but I fear that using any
emacs customization features might cause custom.el to be rewritten,
overwriting any manual additions to that file.

You might have to create init.el on your own.  XEmacs, when it
converted my .emacs file, replaced it with:

| ;;; XEmacs backwards compatibility file
| (setq user-init-file
|       (expand-file-name "init.el"
| 			(expand-file-name ".xemacs" "~")))
| (setq custom-file
|       (expand-file-name "custom.el"
| 			(expand-file-name ".xemacs" "~")))
| 
| (load-file user-init-file)
| (load-file custom-file)

You shouldn't need to do this manually.

The documentation seems to indicate that init.el is the preferred
file, anyway.  See node "(xemacs)Init File":

   When you start Emacs, it normally loads either `.xemacs/init.el' or
   the file `.emacs' (whichever comes first) in your home directory.
   This file, if it exists, should contain Lisp code.  It is called
   your initialization file or "init file".  Use the command line
   switch `-q' to tell Emacs whether to load an init file (*note
   Entering Emacs::).  Use the command line switch `-user-init-file'
   (*note Command Switches::) to tell Emacs to load a different file
   instead of `~/.xemacs/init.el'/`~/.emacs'.
