Thank you for your help. Mentioning the login shell was the
hint which put me on the right track.

In /etc/profile I added the path to the TeX binaries, fired up
Aquamacs (with my customizations) and processed a Latex file. It
worked. (To be complete: First I removed the preferences of
Terminal and logged out.)

I had a problem with my Latex installation. In January I switched
to Mac-Tex and as far as I remember everything worked. Later,
I installed the most recent security update of Apple and a QuickTime
update too. After that, all pathes to the Tex binaries were broken.
I fixed that for the tc-shell (and forgot to use /usr/texbin).

My installation of Aquamacs 1.6 could not process Latex files
too. The reasons are unknown to me. Could (security) updates
of Apple be a problem?
