Subject: Exporter aborts upon encountering even one unresolvable link

I just updated to 8.3.1 from 8.3beta (from git). That appears to have been
a terrible mistake on my part.
From this thread
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2015-09/msg00040.html> I
see that the exporter now throws an error and aborts when it encounters an
unresolvable link. That makes things really, REALLY difficult. It means I
can't get a complete, working export to HTML (in my case) until all link
problems are fixed in my 22KLOC .org file (which I use to generate
http://www.CommonDraft.org/index.html
<http://www.commondraft.org/index.html>). That seems EXTREMELY suboptimal.
(I'm trying to be tactful here.)
Worse, the exporter doesn't even generate a list of unresolvable links
before aborting. That means the only way that I can find and fix busted
links (so far as I know) is to do an export --- which takes several minutes
given the large file --- and have the export abort on a single link. Then
I fix that one link, export again, and have it abort again. Repeat.
Aaaargggggg.
I started looking at the hooks, as suggested in a message in the previous
thread, but I'm not nearly skilled enough in elisp to be able to do
anything useful.
Any suggestions?
