It works for me on linux and cygwin, but does not on native windows.
Inserting some debug statements just before file_name and realtmp are
compared produces the following (I use C:/cygwin/tmp as the tempdir):

file_name: C:/cygwin/tmp/LYX_TM~1.VSQ/LYX_TM~1/MANUSC~1.TEX
realtmp:   C:/cygwin/tmp/lyx_tmpdir.vsQUbXBjkoun

Seemingly, the real path of file_name is returned in the short form, while
that of realtmp is not. I don't know why.
