If the file is indeed in the /current/ directory, then a simple fix may
be to use %b for the file argument to makeindex?  I have no problems
with bibtex using

,----
| org-latex-to-pdf-process is a variable defined in `org-latex.el'.

`----

Note the use of %b instead of %o or %f.  I've never used makeindex so
cannot be sure this would work.
