Does following the advice in the FAQ entry "Why doesn't AUCTeX signal

Hm, that's not good; especially when interactive mode expects input
due to an error. As you did not supply any information about your
installation (information which is generated automatically if you use
`M-x TeX-submit-bug-report RET' or the respective menu entry for bug
reporting) I cannot give some definitive advice here.

Okay, the following is rather technical: The output buffer uses
`comint-mode' which provides facilities to do that. We could either
let-bind comint variables which do this in `TeX-run-interactive' or
even set them buffer-locally during mode initialization. I had
positive results with let-binding `comint-move-point-to-output' in CVS
Emacs and `comint-scroll-to-bottom-on-input' in Emacs 21.4 where the
former variable does not exist. Is anybody familiar with this stuff
and knows the right thing to do?
