[Bug-AUCTeX] 11.87; LaTeX-newline doesn't insert newline when comment-auto-fill-only-comments is set

[Piet van Oostrum]

Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen.

Be sure to consult the FAQ section in the manual before submitting
a bug report.  In addition check if the bug is reproducable with an
up-to-date version of AUCTeX.  So please upgrade to the version
available from http://www.gnu.org/software/auctex/ if your
installation is older than the one available from the web site.

If the bug is triggered by a specific (La)TeX file, you should try
to produce a minimal sample file showing the problem and include it
in your report.

Your bug report will be posted to the AUCTeX bug reporting list.

This bug shows up when I start a new document and enter C-e C-e document 
Iinsert document environment. The document shows up as follows:

\begin{document}

\end{document}
\documentclass{article}

I.e the documentclass comes at the end. I traced this to LaTeX-newline not 
inserting newlines, and this only happens when both LaTeX-insert-into-comments 
and comment-auto-fill-only-comments are TRUE.
The reason is that LaTeX calls (indent-new-comment-line) even when not in a 
comment, but indent-new-comment-line doesn't do anything in this case. It says:

;; If we are not inside a comment and we only auto-fill comments,
;; don't do anything (unless no comment syntax is defined).

The problem can be solved  by changing the last cond part in LaTeX-newline from

            (t
             (indent-new-comment-line)))
to 
            (t
             (newline)))
