DU 4.0 broke emacs/latex

Hello Managers,

I recently upgraded one of our alphas to DU4.0, but it caused a strange
problem with emacs/latex:

Here is what I try:
emacs myfile.tex

Then from Tex menu I choose Tex File.

This is supposed to run "/usr/local/bin/latex filename", but instead
it just hangs emacs all together. When I list the processes, there is no
latex process. Emacs by itself works just fine and I can manually
use latex. It is the combination of two (as explained above) that
does not work. I have both emacs and latex executables in my path.

I have tried re-compiling and re-installing emacs and latex with
both gcc and dec cc, but the problem persists.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
