The AUC-TeX folks are not really useful here, since noweb-mode is
pretty much the controlling mode (i.e. we control 2 of the 3 modes in
the framework, and most of the current bugs that I know of are our
fault).

So I'd post here, not there.  

Since I've actually gotten permission recently to use R for a project,
I'm again using noweb-mode.

I actually use a combination of Sweave and Makefiles, evaluating code
to test it out, and the makefiles automagically generate the document.

There is no good way to highjack the C-c C-c command  feature of
AUC-TeX -- perhaps you could add an Sweave command using Fritz' sample
Sweave.sh (see the Sweave FAQ on his home page) but the rest is
usually easier with a Makefile.
