[Orgmode] Latex export - footnotes and emphasis

[Matthew Lundin]

Hi Carsten,

When I export a footnote that begins with emphasis/italics markup, the
markup is not converted to \emph in the LaTeX output.

E.g., the following source...

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+title: Test

This is a footnote.[fn:footnote]

[fn:footnote] /Test./
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Is exported as (some of preamble omitted):

,----
| \title{Test}
| \author{Matthew Lundin}
| \date{March 28, 2009}
| 
| \begin{document}
| 
| \maketitle
| 
| \setcounter{tocdepth}{3}
| \tableofcontents
| \vspace*{1cm}
| 
| 
| This is a footnote.\footnote{/Test./ }
| 
| 
| 
| \end{document}
`----

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Matt
