I'm puzzled about this.  The backtrace says that it passes a single
directory ("/usr/lib/xemacs-21.4.19/etc/) instead of a list of
directories (like `load-path') to `locate-library'.  `locate-library'
passes it to `locate-file'.  AUCTeX only uses `locate-library' in
`toolbarx-find-image' were the path comes from `toolbarx-image-path':

(defvar toolbarx-image-path
  (nconc
   (delq nil (mapcar #'(lambda(x)
                         (and (member
                               (file-name-nondirectory
                                (directory-file-name x))
                               '("toolbar" "images"))
                              ;;(file-directory-p x)
                              x))
                     load-path))
   (list data-directory))
  "This is where toolbarx finds its images.")

I am aware of this.  But your backtrace didn't give any hint to me
that the problem is related to `latex-toolbar.el'.  If it would have,
I would have proposed to complain to it's maintainer, not to AUCTeX.

Bye, Reiner.
