Thank you for this patch. I only wonder why it is #ifdef'd MIKTEX. The 
patch seems to be Windows-specific, so why not #ifdef _WIN32?

Taking a closer look at the [x]dvipdfmx sources: I see a lot of MIKTEX 
sections (not coming for me). Some of these sections are irrelevant now 
(as MIKTEX tries to emulate KPathSea behaviour). I wouldn't mind if 
these #ifdef's were removed from the source code.
