Thanks Seb,

It doesn't appear to be a reader problem.  The links fail in skim and  
acrobat.

I'm getting this in the LaTeX output:
\href{sec-2_5}{package loading part}

If I read the hyperref documentation correctly, then I think it should  
be:
\hyperref[sec-2_5]{package loading part}

If I'm right about what the link should look like in LaTeX, and there  
is no obvious reason why I'm not getting it in the LaTeX export, then  
I'll work on finding a minimal example.

All the best,
Tom
