With::

  .. admonition:: mytitle 
     :class: rappel
   
     body text

I can get a custom title with the LaTeX preamble::

  \newcommand*{\DUCLASSrappel}{
    \renewcommand*{\DUtitle}[1]{\emph{Rappel: ##1}}
  }

* The re-definition is local to the environment, so you don't need to 
  save/restore the original function.

* In the nested function redefinition, the argument placeholder requires
  two hashes, ``#1`` → ``##1``!

This is described in 
https://docutils.sourceforge.io/docs/user/latex.html#titles
Attention: typos. 
   I just added a missing ``}`` and the second ``#`` in the document source.

Yes, this change is described in
https://docutils.sourceforge.io/RELEASE-NOTES.html#release-0-18-2021-10-26

  legacy_class_functions setting default changed to "False", admonitions
  are now environments.

So, the quick and dirty fix is ``rst2latex --legacy-class-functions``.

Hope this helps,

Günter
