I was actually a bit surprised about this. Apparently, they are saying that small drops in air pressure in the vicinity of the blades essentially causes the air in their lungs which is under "normal" pressure to violently expand thus rupturing their lungs.
At least one site has data showing bats "investigating" turbines (reposted from BCM forums)
Fascinating video of bats interacting with industrial wind turbines in WV:
http://www.bu.edu/cecb/wind/video/ I know virtually nothing about the physics of wind turbines so maybe someone could chime in....
Caves themselves are sometimes subject to rapid air pressure shifts due to weather fronts and so a bat flying from deep within a cave to the outside during a front passage would need to deal with this scenario albeit likely without as abrupt a boundary. Also, they rapidly change altitudes during flight and so again you would expect some mechanisim of dealing with air pressure differences during respiration.
Finally I would think that the area of low pressure would be fairly small and confined to the immediate vicinity of the blades which we are assuming bats *could* detect if they are trying. I know from personal experiance that bats can fly smack into a stationary or moving object they don't expect to be there ... like a caver
I could maybe see a very high speed migrating bat with its echolocation off passing very very close to a spinning blade, entering a small pocket of low pressure air and not being able to compensate quickly enough. Still seems surprising to me.
I'm not scared of the dark, it's the things IN the dark that make me nervous. :)
