Thanks for testing! The attached patch (against 087b0300) should fix BibTeX and 
biber.

The fix involves changing `TeX-run-command` to accept an argument for an 
expected file extension in the directory (defaults to nil and passed as "aux" 
in `TeX-run-BibTeX` which leads to the correct output-directory). I am not sure 
this is the cleanest fix, but it should be backward compatible with previous 
code.

I don't use all the features of AUCTeX, so I am not even sure how to test some 
features. I would especially appreciate testing the other tex commands. I 
suspect some of them would be broken but fixing them should be straightforward 
(either by adding `%(output-dir)` to the command or by using the fix above).
