Thank you, please find attached the patch I wrote following what I
suggested in my previous message.  I'm not inclined to change the name
of the viewer entry in `TeX-view-program-list-builtin', so that users
need only to change the new option `TeX-evince-gnome' (better names
welcome) and customizing both `TeX-evince-gnome' and
`TeX-view-program-selection' at the same time may led to strange
situations (but I didn't test this actually).

Tassilo, could you please take a look at the patch?

Bye,
Mosè
