Thank you both for the work that you do, and for your response to this.  

I am using the AUCTeX that comes with Ubuntu's long term release 14.04, namely AUCTeX 11.87-1.  So that explains how your update has not yet gotten to me.

Sorry for the noise.

Jim

You're welcome!

That must be an old version of AUCTeX.  The current version, 11.88.8,
just warns when you use it after the \begin{document}, i.e., after the
preamble.

Well, and if you use the filecontents package which provides a similar
environment without even the preamble-restriction, AUCTeX won't issue
any warning at all.

So I'm closing this issue.

Bye,
Tassilo
