Here,
Org-mode version 7.3  commit-451acd11cef9db348aa26aa1bbc2a300c75cbe88
GNU Emacs 23.2.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2010-05-08 on G41R2F1

confirmed. Yes, this is a bug.

More info:
 If the pointer of the mouse is put on the word "link"
 the yellow window that appears says:"LINK: file:namefile".
 so the LINK is somehow recognised as a link to the file namefile.

 However clicking on it makes the cursor jump to the link of the
 footnote.

 But if the link is in a new line, e.g.:

* Footnotes
 [fn:1] Note with a 
[[file:abecedaire.jpg][link]].

Org-mode opens the link of the file.

Then a *qualitative* bug analysis.

Seems that Org-mode considers the [[file:abecedaire.jpg][link]]  link, 
when it is the same line  of the footnote link, 
as part of the footnote link itself.

My skills end here, I can't help more. 

Carsten, hth, have a nice squashing ;-)

cheers,
Giovanni
