No no, the error comes from emacs complaining that it cannot set the
working directory for the shell to a directory which doesn't exist.

I just checked with an emacs 22 installation.  You get the very same
error there.

That's all that matters. :-)

You're welcome!

Subject: 13.0.14; Non-file-visiting TeX buffers
Date: Fri, 27 Aug 2021 09:20:54 -0300
Hi All,

Since the latest release (v13.0.14), I'm having problems opening a new 
`.tex' buffer (still non-file-visiting) when 
`TeX-view-evince-keep-focus' is `t'. As far as I can tell/recall, I did 
not face this until upgrading today (and this is a procedure I do 
commonly, but I did not rigorously test this to pin down the change).

An ECM to reproduce the issue is: start `emacs -Q'.

Do an initial setup:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/elpa/auctex-13.0.14")
(load "auctex.el" nil t t)
(setq TeX-parse-self t)
(setq TeX-auto-save t)
(setq TeX-view-evince-keep-focus t)
#+end_src

Now, find a `.tex' file which does not yet exist, say "~/test/test.tex" 
with `C-x C-f test/test.tex RET'.

We then get the error "File mode specification error: (file-missing 
Setting current directory No such file or directory 
/home/gustavo/test/)".

The file itself gets opened in fundamental mode.

With `M-x toggle-debug-on-error' and repeating the procedure, we get the 
following backtrace (its final part):

#+begin_example
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (file-missing "Setting current directory" 
"No such file or directory" "/home/gustavo/test/")
