How would I know ;-)
Assuming that this is indeed the case, then we should differentiate
between external_path(p) and external_path_suitable_for_latex(p):
string os::external_path_suitable_for_latex(string const & p) {
string const dos_path = external_path(p);
// No backslashes in LaTeX files
return subst(dos_path,'\\','/');
}

I'll do that with pleasure.
