OK, there's a chance (probably a pretty good one) that none of what
I'm going to suggest is going to have anything to do with your
problem.

Do something about all these. They could be causing all kinds of
unexpected behaviour. Ideally...

Remove 'ps-print-nomule', it was replaced by 'ps-print'.

Remove this package too. It no longer exists in the XEmacs Packages.

Interesting that 'font-latex' is loaded, but not 'latex'. Can you
tell us how you are loading latex and what does your auctex setup look
like?
Fix up those few things I mentioned and see how that goes.
