nothing has changed in my .emacs file ((add-to-list 'load-path

uses now: ~/.emacs.d/elpa/auctex-11.89.5/)
Probably package-initialize is called in your init file after
that add-to-list. If you do not a call to package-initialize in
your init file, it gets added to it automatically by
package.el.
Just a side note: I find this a bit bad, because in my case I
have an .emacs which is used as a dispatch depending on the
version of Emacs in use. Hence the forcefully added
package-initialize needed to be manually corrected for use only
in the correct branches.
