Problem exporting file with code references

Problem exporting file with code references

[Thibault Marin]

Hi list,

I am trying to run the last example on the documentation page:
http://orgmode.org/manual/Literal-examples.html and I am running into a
problem.  The following is the full org file I am trying to export:

---
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp -n -r
(save-excursion                  (ref:sc)
   (goto-char (point-min)))      (ref:jump)
#+END_SRC
In line [[(sc)]] we remember the current position.  [[(jump)][Line
(jump)]] jumps to point-min.
---

When trying to export (I tried html or latex), I get the following error
message: 'user-error: Unable to resolve link: "sc"'.

Trying to investigate, it appears that the `org-babel--normalize-body'
function (ob-core.el) removes the references "(ref:sc)" and "(ref:jump)"
from the code block prior to execution.  This happens during the call to
`org-babel-exp-process-buffer' when `org-export-babel-evaluate' is
non-nil (in ox.el).  From that point, the source block content does not
contain the "(ref:sc)" and "(ref:jump)" text.  Consequently, when
reaching the `org-export-resolve-coderef' function, the link is not
found in the code and the error is returned.

I get this failure with version:
Org-mode version 8.3.5 (release_8.3.5-1079-g61dd51.dirty @
~/org_git/org-mode/lisp/)

For reference, the same file get exported without issue when using an
older version:
Org-mode version 8.3.5 (8.3.5-elpaplus @
~/.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20160815/)

Am I missing something here? Is this a bug?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
thibault

This is now fixed. Thank you.
