Check it in.  In fact, the first two sections were quite what I had
already put into my tex-buf.el.  The third change is a crock: one
should really transplant the patterns and stuff from preview.el, or
rather _move_ the stuff and figure something out that will use the
same code.

And that's where I ran out of steam.  Until somebody else gets geared
up or I get another bout of time and energy surplus, I guess your
patch is quite the minimum for claiming that we officially support
this error style now.

preview-latex is quite smarter: indeed, if you use this error style,
it should no longer get confused about what file it is currently in.

In theory, of course.
