I tried the updated patch. There is still a regression in `TeX-clean',
which I guess existed in earlier version of your patch:
`TeX-clean' includes region files, such as _region_.log and _region_.pdf,
as its targets explicitly so that "C-c C-c Clean" and "C-c C-c Clean
All" can clean the relavant files altogether. However, now C-c C-c Clean
(All) doesn't count region files as its target.

Though there are still cross dependency between `TeX-master-file' and
`TeX-master-output-dir', I think they are just formal ones and doesn't
cause infinite loop.

However, the complication involving `TeX-command-file-function' still
remains. I prefer that they are sorted out.
