No. I've never got in touch with TEXMFLOCAL before. I wonder if MiKTeX
uses that variable at all. Only the following variables are documented
to be read by MiKTeX:
BIBINPUTS
Extra paths to locate .bib files.
BSTINPUTS
Extra paths to locate .bst files.
MFINPUTS
Extra paths to locate METAFONT input and openin files.
MIKTEX_REPOSITORY
Location of the package repository. This can be either a fully qualified
path name (a local package repository) or an URL (a remote package
repository).
MIKTEX_TRACE
Comma-separated list of trace stream names (see Chapter 9, Trace
Streams). If this variable is set, then MiKTeX programs will write trace
messages into the DebugView window.
MPINPUTS
Extra paths to locate MetaPost input files.
TEXINPUTS
Extra paths to locate TeX \input and \openin files.
TFMFONTS
Extra paths to locate TeX font metric files

That call fails even if I set TEXMFLOCAL:
H:\home>set TEXMFLOCAL
TEXMFLOCAL=d:/localtexmf
H:\home>kpsewhich --progname latex --expand-path "$TEXMFLOCAL"
C:/Dokumente und Einstellungen/All Users/Anwendungsdaten/MiKTeX/2.5
H:\home>
As I already wrote all texmf trees known to MiKTeX can be found in the
output of 'initexmf --report':

If that's a portable solution I don't know. But I don't know about
kpsewhich either, since both switches used in your call, --progname and
--expand-path, are listed as deprecated in MiKTeX:
H:\home>kpsewhich --help
Usage: kpsewhich [OPTION...]
-alias=APP Pretend to be APP, i.e., use APP's configuration
settings when searching for files.
-expand-path=PATH Deprecated.
-expand-var=VAR Deprecated.
-engine=ENGINE Unsupported.
-file-type=FILETYPE The type of the file to search for.
-format=FORMAT Deprecated.
-list-file-types List known file types.
-must-exist Run the package installer, if necessary.
-progname=PROGNAME Deprecated.
-show-path=FILETYPE Show the search path for a certain file type.
-start Start the associated program.
-version Print version information and exit.
Help options:
-?, --help Show this help message
--usage Display brief usage message
H:\home>
To summarize: With MiKTeX AUCTeX doesn't see all texmf trees available.
After all I've been able to set TEX-macro-global manually. However, it
would be nice if AUCTeX were able to recognize local trees automatically.
Best regards,
