I can't use Aquamacs Emacs, because it's doing weird things with my
ELisp repository, so I'm not aware of any changes, except that David
Reitter wrote in the Aqua Emacs.app list that PLIST should better be
avoided to stay compatible with other systems. Could be the change
has already happened for you – before November 4th.
You don't need to know much of ELisp and you never should change
ELisp files in the Emacs distribution. There are two alternatives:
set something to the correct value in your init file (usually
~/.emacs) or use the customisation interface. Available from Options -
> Customize Emacs. TeX-command-list is a Specific Option. And
miraculously you can paste the variable's name for example into the
*scratch* buffer, leave the cursor in the name, and then choose from
the menu Options -> Customize Emacs -> Specific Option. Now a simple
RET is sufficient.
BTW, once you've saved your changes (they should go into ~/.emacs)
you have a slight chance to edit this customisation in the init file ...
How did you integrate the synctex option before? Are you aware of the
difference between Emacs' native (La)TeX mode and AUCTeX's offerings?
