Hi Jay,

Thanks for your suggestion, and thank you to all for your help. With a
minor modification (changing "--clean" to "--build=local", since otherwise
texi2dvi does not see my other included files unless I use "-I") it does
solve the problem, except for the efficiency, as Nick pointed out.
I think the only alternative would be to call a Makefile through a lisp
function in this variable.
For some reason, Org export to LaTeX (and full compilation) feels a little
sluggish to me; the export to LaTeX (.org => .tex) part must be quick and
the rest of compilation doesn't much have to do with Org. I could probably
use only one invocation of "texi2dvi --pdf --clean --verbose --batch %f"
and treat the PDF as a draft and then every once in while do a full
compilation.

Do you, or anyone else, have any comments or any other suggestions for
speeding things up?
