As Jean pointed out, I didn't touch how `TeX-command-extra-options' is
used.

And sorry, I misunderstood the position of %(extraopts).  I thought that
the current AUCTeX allows `TeX-command-extra-options' to insert TeX
codes in a command line like this:

%%% TeX-command-extra-options: "\\foo\\bar{\\bla}"

But that's not the case.  Since %(extraopts) is put BEFORE %(mode) in
the default `TeX-command-list' and `LaTeX-command-style', such settings
won't work.

Thus `TeX-command-extra-options' cannot be used to put TeX codes in a
command line even with current AUCTeX.  I'm sorry for my confusing
statements so far.

I wonder how Colin achieves to put TeX codes in a command line in
AUCTeX.  Perhaps by customizing `TeX-command-list' or
`LaTeX-command-style'?  Or customizing `TeX-expand-list' to override the
default expansion of %(extraopts), %(mode) etc.?

Don't mind, we Japanese (at least I) generally don't care much whether
to be called by first name or last name in conversation with western
people :-).
