Bug: Error with org-bibtex export with tags when using custom bibtypes [8.2.5h (8.2.5h-82-gd91d4b-elpaplus @ /Users/leonardaveryrandall/.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20140324/)]

Hello,

When I attempt to run M-x org-bibtex on a .org file with non-standard
bibtex types that have a tag, they fail to export if
org-bibtex-tags-are-keywords is set to t. This persists even if I add the
bibtex type to org-bibtex-types.  I checked, and this problem persists with
a minimal init file, and a minimal org file. I have also checked, and I get
the same problem with Emacs 24.3.5 from emacsforosx.  I just started using
org-bibtex so I do not know how far the bug goes back.

Here is a minimal example that gets the bug.


** Critique of Practical Reason  :ex:
:PROPERTIES:
:TITLE: Critique of Practical Reason
:BOOKTITLE: Practical Philosophy
:BTYPE: bookinbook
:CUSTOM_ID: Kant:1996a
:AUTHOR: Kant, Immanuel
:PAGES: 133--276
:TRANSLATOR: Gregor, Mary J
:EDITOR: Gregor, Mary J
:YEAR:  1996
:PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press
:ADDRESS: Cambridge UK
:END:



I press ``M-x org-bibtex'' it returns ``Bibtex error on "Critique of
Practical Reason"". This error does not occur if I change ``BTYPE" to
``book'' or if I remove the tag ``:ex:'' from the headline. As I noted
above, I added ``bookinbook'' to the org-bibtex-types and added the
appropriate fields there and in org-bibtex-fields.



Here is a minimal init:

(setq org-bibtex-tags-are-keywords t)
(setq org-bibtex-export-arbitrary-fields nil)
(setq org-bibtex-prefix nil)



It may also be useful to note that if I set ``org-bibtex-prefix'' to "bib"
and set ``org-bibtex-export-arbitrary-fields'' to t (and of course edit the
property names in my .org file appropriately), I get an error even with
standard bib types.

Below is the bug report.

Thanks so much for your help,
All the best,
Leonard
