Okay.

I just downloaded
<URL:http://staff.science.uva.nl/~dominik/Tools/reftex/reftex-alpha.tar.gz>.
Is that the current distribution and does it contain all files
available?  No additional stuff for something like autoconf et al.?

In that case I'd just go ahead and import that into AUCTeX's CVS
repository as is and then we can start hacking on it.

I guess for importing something like
cvs -z3 -d:ext:<membername>@cvs.savannah.nongnu.org:/sources/auctex \
  import -m "Import of RefTeX 4.31" reftex FSF REFTEX_4_31
should work.  I'm not sure about vendor and release tag.  For the
release tag perhaps the format we are using for AUCTeX would be
better: release_4_31.
