The same type of problem exists for `org-latex-to-pdf-process': contrarily to
what I'd thought from reading the doc, the argument %b is NOT (only) the base
name, but the full name without the file extension; hence, the problem under
Cygwin Emacs with /cygdrive/c type of paths which are sent (via LaTeXMK or
directly) to PDFLaTeX.
Hence, my current (ugly) workaround to support PDFLaTeX and XeTeX in both
Windows and Cygwin versions of Emacs:

where I convert Cygwin paths to mixed Windows paths (mixed meaning: use
slashes instead of backslashes -- otherwise, the backslashes should be
escaped, which isn't the case).
Best regards,
