Okay.

I'm not sure I understand the question. AUCTeX uses `comment-forward'
to skip empty or commented lines when traversing LaTeX macro arguments.
So for me `comment-forward' is not so much an internal function of
newcomment.el but rather one which is useful for other parts of Emacs or
packages like AUCTeX. That's also why I think it makes sense for it to
be autoloaded.
Anyway, I will put a call to `comment-normalize-vars' into the
compatibility function for `comment-forward' in AUCTeX before
`comment-forward' is actually called (if available). This will get rid
of the issue. And the call to `comment-forward' in RefTeX has actually
only been present in my local copy. RefTeX actually uses a different
mechanism for skipping over comments.
