OK, I took a closer look at the problem and it seems to me that
the appended patch should help.
What was wong with the previous approach is that a file given as a
relative path would return a relative path (whereas is is more
reasonable to get an absolute one) and, worse, if you ask for a file
like foo/bar.bib, then findtexfile() will only search for bar.bib.
Concerning the problem with older kpsewhich, a stopgap measure (since
we do not use this format stuff anyway) is to remove the --format
option. Note that I removed the OnlyFileName() too, since latex
certainly does not do that.
Lars, I am not sure this patch is completely right, so I did not
commit it yet. Yann and Staffan, could you try to apply it and tell us
whether it helps?
