I changed my mind. :-) It seems that we can use
`hack-local-variables-hook'. The attached patch looks working well for
me, although this affects tex-jp.el.

This doesn't happen for the attached patch because emacs doesn't run
`hack-local-variables-hook' for non-file buffer. However, we can
simplify `TeX-normal-mode', which doesn't run `find-file-hook' whereas
does `hack-local-variables-hook' through `normal-mode'.
