Does that mean it works even in a newly started Emacs?

I don't know about Windows, but I must say that I consider the GTK
file dialog quite inferior (and maybe even buggy) compared to the
minibuffer in this particular case.  It doesn't show as clearly that
the default will be the file at hand (Okay, it's on the window title,
but who will look there?) and just clicking on "OK" does not work.  I
don't know if the latter is a shortcoming of the file dialog but it
could be considered a bug in Emacs/AUCTeX functionality compared to
the minibuffer alternative.
