No: find-file-hooks is obsolete only because it was renamed to find-file-hook.

You can keep it as-is.  Although I'd use (setq tab-width 4) instead of
set-variable (set-variable is meant for interactive use, not that it matters
in this case).

Actually I'd probably do it that way instead:

   (defun my-latex2rtf-c-mode ()
     (c-mode)
     (setq tab-width 4))

   (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist
                '("/latex2rtf/.*\\.c\\'" . my-latex2rtf-c-mode))

Not sure if it's better.
