The *Messages* buffer shows the following:

Investigating further, the log file associated with the tex file listed above shows the following:

    shell escape is disabled, so I can only detect \ifwindows.

! Package minted Error: You must invoke LaTeX with the -shell-escape flag.

See the minted package documentation for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.

Pass the -shell-escape flag to LaTeX. Refer to the minted.sty documentation for
 more information.

So now I can see what the problem is, but how do I tell org-mode to call latex with the -shell-escape flag?
