Eric,

Others will know better, but I think it's right to say, that's just how
latex export (currently) works.  It needs to have your buffer saved (C-x
C-s), and not just written to a file somewhere (C-x C-w).  This seems true
even if all you want to do is get your latex in a temporary buffer.  It's
not ideal for rustling up a quick piece of throwaway LaTeX, but, as I
remember, it's always been that way.
