OK, I actually tried it and found what the bug is. A quick workaround
is to set '\use_tempdir false' to your .lyx/lyxrc file.
Lars, the problem is around line 660 of LaTeX.C: if an included file
is in the same directory as the document, it will not be found by
DepTable::update, since at that time the current directory is the tmp
directory. You know this code much better than I do, so I'll let you
have a look. A possible (simple?) fix would be to always give absolute
paths in the .dep file.
