I'm trying to use the repository tip. I'm not sure if
I'm using Mule;
the manual doesn't say how you tell. Except, I configured XEmacs
without "--with-mule", so probably not.
I always forget what is the standard. Can you try
to evaluate
(featurep 'mule)
Surely one can build XEmacs without Mule, otherwise there
wouldn't be an
option at configuration. Also tex-jp.el _must_ be usable without Mule,
since whilst it is being compiled by the Make process, Mule doesn't yet
exist.
That is true for Xemacs but not for GNU Emacs. (GNU Emacs is not Mule
free since 15 years or even more.) Don't forget that auctex was almost
entirely developed by GNU Emacs users, and so it seems likely that you
need a Mule version to compile tex-jp.el
