The latest auctex cvs does not even load in xemacs 2.15-b19 (latest CVS
version CVS-20050219). The error message produced is the following:

Error: An error has occurred while loading /Users/artemio/.xemacs/init.el:

Symbol's value as variable is void: @lispauctexdir@

Backtrace follows:

(defvar TeX-lisp-directory @lispauctexdir@ "*The directory where most
of the AUCTeX lisp files are located.\ntex-site.el (wherein this
variable is defined) resides in its parent\ndirectory. For the location
of lisp files associated with styles, see\nthe variables TeX-style-*
(hand-generated lisp) and TeX-auto-*\n(automatically generated lisp).")
