The --synctex=repeat option outputs a synctex file that works with auctex'
epdfinfo program, so (at least when using PDFview) forward and backward
search now work with emacs+auctex, at least when you
(a) put
	(setq ConTeXt-texexec-option-nonstop "")
    in your ConTeXt mode hook (or some other sensible place), and
(b) edit the ConTeXt-expand-options defun in auctex' context.el
    (or redefine the function in some hook) to replace
        --synctex=1
    with
        --synctex=repeat

I have submitted a bug report to auctex about (b) and another item, but I
have no idea if/when the fixes will make it into a new release of auctex.
