Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

In GNU Emacs 21.2.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
 of 2003-01-02 on radagast
configured using `configure  --prefix=/home/daleif/bin/emacs-21.2'
Important settings:
  value of $LC_ALL: nil
  value of $LC_COLLATE: nil
  value of $LC_CTYPE: nil
  value of $LC_MESSAGES: nil
  value of $LC_MONETARY: nil
  value of $LC_NUMERIC: nil
  value of $LC_TIME: nil
  value of $LANG: en_US
  locale-coding-system: iso-latin-1
  default-enable-multibyte-characters: t

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

I'm using AucTeX 11.13.

If one has the following code in a LaTeX file, presses C-c C-n
(by accident) then Emacs actually think that by C-c C-c RET it should
run latex on a (non-existent) masterfile named master-name-tex.

\begin{verbatim}
%%% Local Variables: 
%%% mode: latex
%%% TeX-master: "master-name"
\end{verbatim}

Isn't there any rule on where to place the lines 

%%% Local Variables: 
%%% mode: latex
%%% TeX-master: "master-name"
??

Near the end of the file.  This is a feature, not a bug.  If you
really need to have something that looks like a local variables
section in your file, you can always make do by adding a _real_ local
variables section that is empty right to the end of the file.
