So at least in my usual latex/xetex work, I didn't find any problem.

Hm, the XEmacs version I have installed (21.5 (beta 31) "ginger") has
it:

  (require FEATURE &optional FILENAME NOERROR)

I think it is.  When (TeX-evince-dbus-p ...) returns nil, the source
correlation features simply work by calling evince with the appropriate
command line options for forward search, and the user has to configure
emacsclient/gnuclient for backward search.  That's the same behavior one
had before the DBUS additions.
