[Bug-AUCTeX] 11.86; Preview does not work with xelatex

[Joost Kremers]

Hi,

preview-latex doesn't seem to work with xelatex. Using the following
miminal example:

====================

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{xunicode}
\setmainfont[Mapping=tex-text]{Linux Libertine O}

\begin{document}

\[ a^2 + b^2 = c^2 \]

\end{document}


%%% Local Variables:
%%% mode: latex
%%% TeX-master: t
%%% TeX-engine: xetex
%%% TeX-PDF-mode: t
%%% End:

====================

Running C-c C-p C-b on this file produces no preview-image. Instead, I get the
following error:

error in process sentinel: preview-reraise-error: Opening input file: no such 
file or directory, /home/joost/tmp/sample/_region_.prv/tmp9417EK0/preview.dsc
error in process sentinel: Opening input file: no such file or directory, 
/home/joost/tmp/sample/_region_.prv/tmp9417EK0/preview.dsc

Thanks,

Joost Kremers
