It is activated at startup by adding

(TeX-source-specials-mode 1)

to my custom.el file.

Yes (LaTeX/S).

I guess so, because I use auctex CVS and therefore I recompile the 
source code quite often. At any rate, source specials do work, e.g., 
inverse search works flawlessly (although I had to add the line
xdvi.editor: gnuclient -q +%l %f

to my ~/.Xdefaults to make xdvi work with auctex, because otherwise 
emacs is opened when I Control-click on an xdvi window).
Thanks a lot,
