Hm... good question... I think most of the AF assist "beams" on compacts would be useless at distances over say 3 metres.
If the subject is in the distance perhaps you could manual focus at infinity, or just estimate the distance and use MF.
Those with infrared beams like on some SLRS or external flashes (like you pointed out) should work quite well...
