Something is very strange, indeed. The directory
/usr/share/emacs25/site-lisp/auctex/ has meaningful symlinks to
../../../emacs/site-lisp/auctex/* files, but the subdirectory style
has no symlinks in it at all, but that is presumably because line 94
of /usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/auctex deletes them.
On the other hand, as you say, in
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/auctex/style/subfigure.el, the setq
TeX-complete-list is at line 48.
I tried a modified version of install/auctex which does not delete the
style/*.el files, and confirmed that indeed lines 44-51 are as you
say.
I think I have found the bug, though, and here's a patch which I
believe fixes it; the paretheses are wrong in the append command:

I don't know why this doesn't cause a problem in emacs24, or why
no-one else has seen/had/noticed the problem.
