Hi Tom,
The :file property is treated in a special manner when Org-mode resolves
properties (notice it is an element of the `org-special-properties'
variable). I've just pushed up a change which temporarily removes :file
from this list while resolving bibtex entries. This change should fix
your reported problem -- please let me know if it doesn't. If any other
elements of `org-special-properties' seem likely to cause problems we
can temporarily remove them as well.
