I assumed typing C-c C-c in the LaTeX buffer under Tramp would run LaTeX
on the remote machine; at any rate, as I mentioned in my OP, when I put
the buffer of the remote file in the standard Emacs (non-AUCTeX) LaTeX
mode, I can run LaTeX and it produces a .dvi file on the remote machine.
So this looks like an AUCTeX problem; I'll seek help on the AUCTeX list.
