Hm, your last changes to `TeX-parse-error' are from 2006, and thereafter
it's Reiner with one line change in 2007 and Ralf with some changes in
2009.

Anyway, for the time being, I've reverted the change.

Luc, could you please explain what's the problem your patch is actually
trying to fix, preferably with a sample file?  At least with the current
git version, I don't see a difference with or without your patch when
using the hyperref package.  And speaking from the AUCTeX-date in your
patch bug report, your version of `TeX-parse-error' should be
up-to-date.

Bye,
Tassilo
