[Bug-AUCTeX] 11.84; cmsample.tex not recognised as TeX file

[Peter Dyballa]

Hello!

The TeX file cmpsfont/cmsample.tex from the AMS PostScript Type 1  
fonts archive cmps-pc.zip (ftp://ftp.ams.org/pub/tex/psfonts/cm/cmps- 
pc.zip) is not recognised as a TeX file. Invoking M-x tex-mode RET  
does not change the mode. TeXing is not possible, since TeX is never  
available.

The problem with the French is that they don't have a word for «
