I am not sure this really qualifies as a bug.  I think it would be
unrealistic to expect org to be able to parse LaTeX code.  

The solution is relatively straightforward, albeit maybe not the most
portable: specify a full path for the file name in the input command.

Alternatively, use org directives for including other org files?

Or modify the org-latex-classes variable to include your desired header
specifications if you always want them.

HTH,
