Isn't much better to create all the intermediate files in the /tmp
directory? (so that you never pollute your working directory, and never
need to spend time removing temporary files)
Look at the "-output-directory" option available in most recent
implementations of LaTeX.
As a side note: I use this in combination with Rubber and a shell script
to further automate the creation of final documents and previews in
AUCTeX. You can see this at the beginning of the discussion section
