It is, uh, some sort of a bug in babelbib (yeah!).  Babelbib announces
itself as

babelbib.sty    2004/04/21 v0.45 babelbib bundle: multilingual bibliographies (
HH)

Now the opening paren is followed by a newline: this does not look
like a file name string to AUCTeX.  Unfortunately, the HH) looks like
the ending of one.  AUCTeX gets confused about what file it is in.

Taking a look at the version string in the source file makes apparent
that it is simply too long for TeX to fit on a single line.

I am copying this report to babelbib.sty's author.  You should ask him
for permission to shorten the version string.  I'd recommend removing
the word "bundle".

Since the version is only output when the format is reloaded by
mylatex.ltx after dumping, you can also reply "n" to the question
"cache format" and the problem should not appear, at a certain speed
penalty.  Maybe it would be prudent to output some special message at
the end of the preamble to resynchronize AUCTeX to the file names in
question.  But then we might get into other problems.
