I should probably add that when using your example files and loading
lect.tex, the mode for master.tex is detected as Plain TeX mode which
leads to latex.el not being loaded and an error being thrown since
beamer.el relies on certain variables defined in latex.el being
present.  So you should add a local variables section to master.tex
containing "mode: latex".
