Because the output buffer *xxx output* rarely needs to be saved in a
file.  That buffer is only used for receiving outputs from TeX (and some
related programs such as makeindex), so AUCTeX just sets the coding
system for the process communication explicitly, leaving
`buffer-file-coding-system' of *xxx output* untouched.
