Hi Ikumi

I had not read your initial message closely enough.

What happened is that I did something like C-cC-pC-d at my locale,
there was an error, I recovered (no idea how) the command line invocation
which had failed and ended up with the slight modification above
(which later I modified again in my numerous follow-ups) which works
at my locale on commande line.

But it has nothing to do with using a custom format, so here we
see I had not read your message at all but only copied pasted
the MWE. Besides I am not using dev repo of AUCTeX but stock
installation (updated some weeks ago if I recall well).

My TeX-command-list diverged long time ago from official one
and this may interfere too.

It is not easy for me to try out any patch to official AUCTeX
(does it have a github repo?)

I gave it a try with a creating a format like this

etex -ini -interaction=nonstopmode -jobname prv_prim\árias "&pdflatex"  
"\nonstopmode\nofiles\PassOptionsToPackage{active,tightpage,auctex}{preview}\AtBeginDocument{\ifx\ifPreview\undefined\RequirePackage[displaymath,floats,graphics,textmath,sections,footnotes]{preview}[2004/11/05]\fi}\dump"

(CAVEAT: for reasons explained above I do not look into AUCTeX ELisp files,
I just started from things in Keita's message and malaxed until I could
execute on commande line)


Then I executed manually this line (which I copied from the continuation of 
your message)

pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode \&prv_prim\árias "\input{" "\detokenize{" 
prim\árias.tex "}" "}"

and it compiled seemingly successfully

$ pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode \&prv_prim\árias "\input{" "\detokenize{" 
prim\árias.tex "}" "}"
