Hello,
It seems a bit extravagant to include all of the system-info so I removed
most of it . . .

Anyhow Org does not recognized \log and friends as math when using the 
latex-exporter.

Try the following minimal example

\log is math. so is \ln

The LaTeX result is:

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{longtable}
\usepackage{float}
\usepackage{wrapfig}
\usepackage{soul}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{hyperref}

% NOTICE THE TITLE.
\title{\log is math. so is \ln}
% It should have been $\log$ and $\ln$
\author{Rasmus}
\date{17 January 2010}

\begin{document}

\maketitle

\setcounter{tocdepth}{3}
\tableofcontents
\vspace*{1cm}

\end{document}

Would it be possible to adopt \log-like functions as math? \cos, \tan,
\sin are also affected.
It is so convenient to write \log-like but I have to fix the exported
latex file manually afterward.

BTW: I created a very complex econometric note in org. Once I had
squeezed the LaTeX-related bugs (math typos) the export was /perfect/!
(except for the \log's). Good work!
