Incidentally, Georg, we received a report some time back that LyX was
unable to compile latex files containing references to cyrillic file
names. The solution is to use MakeLatexName, so:
out << "\includegraphics{"
<< MakeLatexName(relative_file) << "}";
As you're looking at this stuff, could you just shove them in?
