If you are using E4X inside script in HTML pages loaded via http: or 
file: URLs then you need to add a parameter to the content type of the 
script element:
   <script type="application/x-javascript; e4x=1">
If you are using script in XUL document loaded via a chrome: URL then I 
think it is enabled by default.
