Indeed, now I can reproduce the problem with your recipe.  And I noticed
that it just works again if you remove turn-on-bib-cite again, open the
document anew, add it again, open the document anew...  It also works if
you append turn-on-bib-cite to LaTeX-mode-hook.

Ah, the problem is that `turn-on-bib-cite' errors, and thus other
functions in `LaTeX-mode-hook' (like the preview setup) don't run.

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function make-local-hook)
  make-local-hook(after-change-functions)
  bib-cite-minor-mode(1)
  eval((bib-cite-minor-mode 1) nil)
  eval-expression((bib-cite-minor-mode 1) nil)
  call-interactively(eval-expression nil nil)
  command-execute(eval-expression)

`make-local-hook' is only defined for XEmacs.  On GNU Emacs, a local
hook is created automatically when add-hook is called with non-nil LOCAL
argument, but on XEmacs you have to do that yourself.  I've added a fix
in Git.
