Thank you for your proposal. I'd like to comment on it. Please bear with
me if I'm saying something stupid since I don't know indirect buffer well.
Current AUCTeX source has some references to the variable
`buffer-file-name', as well as call to the function of the same name. It
seems that the variable is nil in indirect buffers. Is it safe to leave
those references unchanged?

The major portion of the addition is
(cond
[...]
;; Indirect buffer
(my-buffer
(with-current-buffer my-buffer
(TeX-master-file nil nondirectory ask)))
^^^
. Why is the first argument always nil? The original function receives
the second argument as `extension'. Aren't there cases that we should
provide the same argument `extension' here?
There are still some calls to the function `buffer-file-name' which
weren't replaced by `TeX-buffer-file-name' in the source. You can see
them with
git grep -E "[^-]buffer-file-name"
on the repo directory. (This lists references to the variable
`buffer-file-name' as well.)
It seems that the proposed change doesn't work in indirect buffer if
`TeX-output-dir' is specified. To try:
1. Open the following file.
2. Type C-x 4 c
3. Type C-c C-c RET
4. Then AUCTeX signals error with "LaTeX errors in ‘*~/test-tex/<none>
output*’. Use C-c ` to display."
Can you resolve this problem?
