You shouldn't have to change anything, it should work out of the box.
But I think your mistake is having no _EMACS file, which is the file
that it expects. The _EMACS.XMPL file is just an "example" (== xmpl,
get it?) written by Eli for you to "copy _emacs.xmpl _emacs" or rename
or whatever.

P.S. If you're really adventurous, try using CVS (via Cygwin, for
example) to get Emacs 23.0 and test building it on your machine. (I
assume here that you're using old 20.5, which doesn't support UTF-8,
among other goodies.)
