That's a known bug which is already fixed in AUCTeX's CVS repository.
AUCTeX 11.54 will not suffer from this problem.

in XEmacs which inserts whitespace in front of invisible extents
covering more than one line when the second or any following line
inside such an extent is being indented.

Of course it was a silly idea to use GNU Emacs functions for this, but
`(overlays-at (line-beginning-position))' is just so much easier than
`(extent-list nil (line-beginning-position) (line-beginning-position)
'all-extents-closed-open 'overlay)'. (c;
