Ok, now I understand.  The problem with
/usr/share/texmf/tex/context/base/sup-pdf.mkii happens from time to
time also to me on GNU Emacs (I didn't understand you were referring
to it) and it has to do with error log parsing.  Tassilo tried to
address this problem in his simplify-TeX-parse-error branch of the
AUCTeX repository.  Last time I checked it out it did fix some of the
problems.  You may want to give it a look.

Bye,
