   When I do C-c C-b (TeX-buffer), it bombs because it can't find the include
   file, which lives in the original directory, not /tmp.

   If I set TeX-directory to "." (the current directory) rather than "/tmp/",
   then things work OK, but it's a drag having all those temporary files lying
   around.

It would be realy messy.
Then how about specifying temporary file name yourself.

(defvar TeX-zap-file "TEMPORARY"
  "Temporary file name used for text being sent as input to TeX.
Should be a simple file name with no extension or directory specification.")

I know this causes problem if you are working on more than one files
at a time. But do you realy do it ?
