Especially, there's much complexity in auctex's build system in order to compile XEmacs packages, and that's a bit more than just an auctex-compat.el. > The only remaining problem I can imagine is for those few files which > aren't FSF-copyright and hence aren't in the ELPA package, but IIUC > these are obsoletish and could just be dropped (noone complained about > them missing from the ELPA version). Yes, these 5 or 6 files are only addons for some special latex styles. They are not important for auctex, and they could be dropped or easily rewritten by someone else with CA by just looking at the corresponding latex style but not the current code.
