I found a problem.
Maybe that story will be useful for someone, so I'll post it here.
My Emacs saving buffer configuration into emacs.desktop file
automatically, so names like main.tex<2> and main.tex<3> were saved and
reloaded there each time at startup, and uniquify.el hasn't any chance to
name them properly.
My bad!
