Well, in `TeX-auto-parse-region' there is an
(unless (TeX-in-comment) ...
Due to the % characters those lines are regarded as comments.  We
could either modify `TeX-in-comment' in order for it to behave
differently in docTeX mode or modify `TeX-auto-parse-region' to look
into comments (i.e. lines starting with % characters in this case) in
docTeX mode as well.  I expect the first suggestion to break things
all over the board.  The second one should be safer.  Besides we
should maybe stop parsing contents of macrocode environments.
