This is true only if you use `\include', right?  When inserting
secondary files with `\input' there is only a single auxiliary file.

This isn't easy to fix right now in AUCTeX because it doesn't store
the list of included files (or at least I'm not aware of that).
RefTeX does this, see `reftex-all-document-files' function.  Patches
are welcome.
