I've received an explanation: It's a feature. In the central
configuration file of TeXLive, `texmf.cnf', you can find this:
% Allow TeX \openin, \openout, or \input on filenames starting with `.'
% (e.g., .rhosts) or outside the current tree (e.g., /etc/passwd)?
% a (any) : any file can be opened.
% r (restricted) : disallow opening "dotfiles".
% p (paranoid) : as `r' and disallow going to parent directories, and
% restrict absolute paths to be under $TEXMFOUTPUT.
openout_any = p
openin_any = a
This means that by default you can't access the parent directory while
writing output files for security reasons.
