Hi Michael,

I have recently been bitten by this as well.  Based on a block
post [fn:1], I now have this in my .emacs as a work-around:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun al-link-filter (contents backend info)
  (let ((contents (replace-regexp-in-string "\\\\#\\+name:.*$" "" contents)));; 
old and unrelated
      (replace-regexp-in-string "%3D" "=" contents)))
(add-to-list 'org-export-filter-final-output-functions 'al-link-filter)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

It seems to work for me.

Regards,
Andreas
