That's a problem of the TeX error messages no longer corresponding with
the buffer.  I think that's likely a fundamental problem of
longlines-mode.  Do things like "goto-line" and "what-line" work
according to buffer or file lines in longlines-mode?

Anyway, longlines-mode is a bad idea in conjunction with TeX since TeX
has a built-in line-length limit.
