Yes, "(" and ")" in file names will evoke problems in handling these
characters. It's likely that the file name parsing mechanism in LaTeX
also has problems with parentheses, although MS Losedos has not... (it
"just" forbids the use of any of these: < > : " / \ | ? *, while Mac
OS X does not allow : because of backward compatibility with Classic
Mac OS 8-9 and Mac OS X and any other UNIX do not allow / because it's
the path separator; every character can be handled by "escaping" it in
shell, but in LaTeX it must first be "escaped" from LaTeX and then in
a form that it is also "escaped" from the shell used to find the file
in the given path – this can become a bit complicated...)
