That's because bibtex itself cannot handle spaces in paths. I thought we fixed
this problem for the original LyX on WIndows release (1.3.6) by copying the
bibtex database to the temp file? Ahhhh, I see we do that, but the problem
lies with the style file...
Seems that someone isn't testing their "clever" fixes...
