In Emacs jargon, they're called file local variables or local variable

Hmm, I have no problems with opening a test file like this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\documentclass{article}
\title{Minimal working example}
\author{Florian}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\begin{document}
\section{What happens}
This does not load AUCTeX correctly with the XeTeX commented option at
the end of the document, but works fine without it. With the option,
Emacs says that 'max-lisp-eval-depth' is exceeded and commands for
compiling the document under AUCTeX are not available.
Leaving out below option and doing 'M-x TeX-engine-set RET xetex'
produces no hiccups.
\end{document}
%%% Local Variables:
%%% mode: LaTeX
%%% TeX-master: t
%%% TeX-engine: xetex
%%% coding: utf-8
%%% End:
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

It seems you've installed AUCTeX from ELPA, maybe you can update
(though I don't think that would solve the issue.)
Do you get this issue also when starting with "emacs -Q"? You need to
start emacs with -Q switch and then eval this in scratch:
(progn
(package-initialize t)
(package-activate 'auctex))
Now open your .tex file.
Best, Arash
