No. I looked up the old tests I did and it appears that the .pdf extension
is needed if the file name is quoted with ". This was not the case on
Angus' machine because the path to his temp directory did not contain
spaces, but it is the case on your machine because it does contain spaces.
Therefore a simple workaround for now is to change the location of the temp
directory.

Angus, I have a half finished patch for this problem which I hope to
complete soon.
