It would be trivial if org-latex-pdf-process were not a custom variable.
I suspect that we may need to use something similar to what export does.
However, setting the right working directory is what other babel
backends do. The fact that ob-latex is not doing the same is an
unfortunate inconsistency and causes the input issue and can potentially
cause other problems.
