Oops.  Sorry, that's from my .emacs:

(defun alist-set (alist-symbol key value &optional search-cdr)
  "e.g. (alist-set 'interpreter-mode-alist 'perl-mode 'cperl-mode t)"
  (let ((cons-cell (if search-cdr
                       (rassoc key (symbol-value alist-symbol))
                     (assoc key (symbol-value alist-symbol)))))
    (if cons-cell
        (if search-cdr
            (setcar cons-cell key)
          (setcdr cons-cell value))
      (set alist-symbol (cons (cons key value)
                              (symbol-value alist-symbol))))))

However, it's probably just easier to use add-to-list if you
don't need to overwrite values.  Namely:

    (add-to-list 'TeX-expand-list
                 '("%(-PDF)"
                   (lambda ()
                     (if (and (not TeX-Omega-mode)
                              (or TeX-PDF-mode TeX-DVI-via-PDFTeX))
                         "-pdf" "-dvi"))))

    (add-to-list 'TeX-command-list
                 '("Latexmk" "latexmk %(-PDF) %s"
                   TeX-run-TeX nil t
                   :help "Run Latexmk on file to build everything."))
