Hm, that looks good so far.

Another thing you could try is to put the following code into the
*scratch* buffer (after AUCTeX was loaded) and type `C-j' with point
after the last closing paren.

(let ((TeX-kpathsea-path-delimiter nil))
  (TeX-search-files (append TeX-macro-private TeX-macro-global) '("sty") t t))

Yep.
