What made you think you should use "x-attachments"?

I don't recall if this was the same in 5.2, but 6's dictionary says:

attach to: Attach documents to a message
        attach to  reference  -- the message to attach the documents to
                documents  a list of alias  -- list of documents to attach
                [spooling  boolean]  -- True to make Eudora copy the document and
attach the copy, and delete the copy when the message is deleted.

Therefore:

set fileList to {alias "MacHD:Desktop Folder:FMkrSessionNotes"}
tell application "Eudora"
        set theMessage to (make new message at end of mailbox named "Out")
        attach to theMessage documents fileList
end tell
