Yes. My question is how serious Axiom takes portability?
Notice that the notion of filename limitations enshrines in the user
interface that I really dislike.

Yes. This problem has many roots. Part of it is that
build-improvements extracts the TeX file in the same directory as it
latexs it. The problem can be papered over in many different way:
(1) add .tex unconditionally.
(2) replace .pamphlet with .tex and pay attention
(3) extract to a different directory
(4) find a btter solution.
