Hi all,

`reftex-view-crossref', when called from a prenote or postnote of a citation macro will assume it is a citation key and run `reftex-view-cr-cite' in whatever is around point, which of course won't be found in the bibfiles, and returns an error of "no such database entry", when it would be expected it to return error "Not on a crossref macro argument". As a result, when the point is left on a prenote or postnote of a citation macro, a spurious echo of "no such database entry" is generated.

Steps to reproduce:

Build Emacs from source (as of today, commit ed52618e707682e812002c98b99efe4baf43e1ca).
Start ~emacs -Q~.

Setup:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/elpa/auctex-12.2.0")
(load "auctex.el" nil t t)
(setq TeX-auto-save t)
(setq TeX-parse-self t)
(setq reftex-plug-into-AUCTeX t)
(add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook 'turn-on-reftex)
#+end_src

Place files `mwe.tex' and `mwe_bib.bib' (respectively below) on the same directory.

#+begin_export latex
\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{biblatex}

\addbibresource{mwe_bib.bib}

\begin{document}

\cite[45]{sigfridsson}

\end{document}
#+end_export

#+begin_example
@article{sigfridsson,
 author       = {Sigfridsson, Emma and Ryde, Ulf},
title = {Comparison of methods for deriving atomic charges from the electrostatic potential and moments},
 journaltitle = {Journal of Computational Chemistry},
 date         = 1998,
 volume       = 19,
 number       = 4,
 pages        = {377-395},
doi = {10.1002/(SICI)1096-987X(199803)19:4<377::AID-JCC1>3.0.CO;2-P},
}
#+end_example

Visit `mwe.tex' and place point in the entrykey `sigfridsson'. Call `reftex-view-crossref' ("C-c &"), it will show the reference, as expected.

Now move point to somewhere on the prenote ("[45]"), and call `reftex-view-crossref' again. It returns "cite: no such database entry: \cite[45]", instead of the expected "reftex-view-crossref: Not on a crossref macro argument". Also, moving point out of the prenote and back to it again, and leaving it there for a while as usual, will echo "cite: no such database entry: \cite[45]", whereas no echo was to be expected.

Best regards,
Gustavo Barros.

Thanks for testing.  I installed it on Emacs master (ca528f7c6).

Well, at some point of time you have to start submitting patches if you
want to get things done your way ;-)  (Just kidding, I know about your
constraints).

Thanks, the heuristic seemed good enough to me.

More importantly, I have to keep my sanity ;-)

You're welcome.  I'm closing this report.
