Yes, I did the same but I get different behavior. If I put the same
code in a .org file (the current file where the citation is or the
#+SETUPFILE), the LaTeX export is
\hyperref[citep:green84:_settl_patter_studies_ocean]{citep:green84:_settl_patter_studies_ocean},
while if I put the same in my .emacs, it is exported as
\texttt{cite:green84:_settl_patter_studies_ocean}. This happens in Org
version 6.21b (Ubuntu 10.10 version). while in the last version from
Git it transforms to
\hyperref[citep-green84-_settl_patter_studies_ocean]{citep:green84:_settl\_patter\_studies\_ocean}

Well, something is going weird...

OK, but for this is easier to just change the labels and remove
underscores, so this is definitely a minor point.

Anyway, thanks a lot for your help!
