Tom,

I can't reproduce the busted link. With more-or-less-current Org-mode
(version 6.36trans (release_6.36.102.g67b5)), the link looks like this:

    <a href="foo.pdf">foo.pdf</a>

Reverting the commit you identified (the revert was not clean: I had to
resolve a merge conflict by hand - a dicey proposition, particularly in
this situation where I have no idea what the patch is trying to do)
gives me:

    <a href="foo.pdf">file:foo.pdf</a>

That's with your minimal.emacs for the other problem you've identified
(changed to produce html of course). So it looks like the patch cleaned
up the link name in this case.

PS. I also looked at the commit: I gave up on figuring it out in any
reasonable time, but I must say the commit comment is no help.
