Does your user name contain a non-ASCII character?

Note that last time you had this problem you solved it by creating a
different user account, see
<URL:http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.auctex.general/2029>.

And here is a bug report from a user who had the same problem:
<URL:http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.bugs/15992>  And he used a user
name with an umlaut.  The patch mentioned in this thread was checked
into the Emacs repository, so you might remedy the problem by using a
CVS version.
