It seems that this code doesn't work actually and raises error, at least
on my environment.

[How to confirm]
0. eval (setq-default TeX-master nil).
1. Save the following dummy file in, say, /tmp.
---- sub.tex ------------------------------

%%% Local Variables:
%%% mode: latex
%%% TeX-master: "main"
%%% End:
-------------------------------------------
2. Open the file with AUCTeX.
3. C-x C-f abc.tex RET
4. Then emacs says
TeX-dwim-master: No catch for tag: --cl-block-nil--, "main"

I'm still using emacs 25.3, not emacs 26.  So it might be the issue of
the version of cl-lib, not of AUCTeX itself.  Anyway, the output of
TeX-submit-bug-report in the sub.tex buffer is shown below.
