I have noticed that when I do

C-h v TeX-macro-global

it will call the function of the same name, thus resulting
in a kpsewhich call
kpsewhich --progname latex --expand-path 
$TEXMFHOME:$TEXMFMAIN:$TEXMFLOCAL:$TEXMFDIST

(via I presume TeX-tree-expand from tex.el)

(earlier TeX-tree-expand would have made 4 calls to kpsewhich; thanks again
for having reduced it to only one)

On the other hand when I do

C-h v TeX-macro-private

there is no call to kpsewhich.

I wonder whether the difference is deliberate (well,
obviously it is) and what is the rationale.

bye,

Jean-François
