I tested the result using latex, xelatex and biber. Everything went well.
The only issue remaining is that now that I'm using xelatex, my output defaults
to PDF rather than DVI, and so AUCTeX needs to be told to make xpdf rather than
xdvi
its default viewer. I searched on line and fiddled with some code in my .emacs
init
file, but so far no luck.
