Well not really
(eval-after-load "tex"
  '(if (and (not TeX-macro-global)
	    (or (getenv "TEXMFCNF")
		(getenv "TEXMFLOCAL")))

That works for me, that is the infamous question does not pop up for
me, TeX-macro-global is set to the correct paths in my environment. I
don't know who this will work for MS though.

(I am not too keen to get CSV code in the official pkg)
On the other hand if as you predict a lot of users will complain, I
put that code in.
