XEmacs's startup.el makes setting `inhibit-startup-message' from site
files (either site-start or default.el) difficult.[1]  After all, the
logic for not allowing it is the same for both.  I suppose the code
was inherited from Emacs, so it's probably the same.

and only the documented method for inhibiting the splash screen is
blocked.
