I have successfully worked around this bug for some time now.
However windows default bulk renaming tool introduces parentheses into the filenames, so will continue to catch out new hugin users on the windows platform.
I can confirm that this happens on a wide range of windows builds of Hugin, both 32 and 64 bit versions, and all 2010 and 2011 releases.
