[XeTeX] Anomolous handling of parentheses in filenames ?

To provide a starting point for a new project, I have just saved

	MS-1214-V15.tex

from a sub-directory called

	Lambeth-Palace-Library

in a parallel directory called

	Horsmonden-Armistice-Day

as

	Order-of-Service(001).tex

When I try to compile it, I am told :

	This is XeTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.3-0.9997.5 (Web2C 2011)
	 restricted \write18 enabled.
	entering extended mode
	! I can't find file `Order-of-Service001.tex'.
	<*> Order-of-Service(001).tex

Why does XeTeX think the file is called "Order-of-Service001.tex" ?
Test-compiled with PdfTeX, all compiles normally.
