Of course, eval-when-compile and eval-and-compile come with their own
set of problems. My "you could" wasn't really meant as an encouragement.

Whatever the reason, looking at the code of TeX-auto-add-type, I think
it *really* should be turned into a macro, and use defvar/defalias
instead of set/fset.

Would that make AUCTeX use tex-mode.el's font-lock rules?

That's what I expected. We also have such code in various parts
of Emacs. But we don't have a really good solution w.r.t to silencing
those warnings.
One potential solution I haven't investigated is to create a new
`require-autoload' which behaves somewhat like `require' (when
interpreted) but which the compiler would replace by a bunch of
autoloads (auto-generated by the compiler by taking the intersection of
the functions provided by the `require' and the functions called in the
file). So you'd replace that code with
(require-autoload 'url-util)
(defun foo ()
(url-util-* ...))
and url-util would only be loaded once you call `foo'.
Maybe `require-lazy' would be a better name for it, but in any case as
long as it's not implemented, its name doesn't matter much.
