Ok, now I look into Tassilo's feedback on the patch itself...

Good idea, I will do that...

No, I need `or' because it does more than just evaluating each elements
in the args list, it also sorts the output of evaluation, and this is
needed by the sequel of the nor algorithm.

BTW, in my previous email I proposed a defun for (not...), but please
note that with this defun `not' must have one single *dialect* argument
(`dialect' as opposed to `dialect expression').

So (nor x y) is equivalent to (not (or x y)) only in the case when (or x
y) is a one element list.

Please note that in my initial contribution you told that `not' would be
better named `nor', and this is why I did rename it. However I think
that it could have kept the original name `not' even if not unary. After
all, the SORTED-DIALECT-LIST element of the hook vector is a particular
implementation of a `set' object. These SORTED-DIALECT-LIST are just non
empty sets.

Maybe it would have been preferable to implement this `set' thing as a
bitmap: it is quite unlikely that AUCTeX will ever have to handle more
dialects than there are bits in an integer (currently 23). Bitwise
logical operators are maybe better suited to make the job. That would be
simpler, shorter, easier to maintain code, and if you wish I can update
the patch towards this.

Anyway, as a minimal change I will update the patch so that
TeX-style-hook-dialect-list is defined like

   (TeX-shdex-or :bibtex :latex :texinfo )

to remove the dependancy on a particular sorted-list based
implementation. In the same vein, within `TeX-run-style-hooks', I will
replace:

 (memq TeX-style-hook-dialect (aref hook 2))

 (TeX-shdex-in-p TeX-style-hook-dialect (aref hook 2))

with

(defalias 'TeX-shdex-in-p 'memq)

Ok, I will do that also.
