I believe I have narrowed down the problem to a more specific case.

I have reexamined the bug I had, and as far as I can tell, it occurs
because of the punctuation at the end of the header line.  I am
attaching a file that shows the funny behavior.  I can link to a header
titled "Foobar" correctly, but not one titled "submit through submission
site:"  Attempts to link to the one word header "Bletch:" also fail.

I conjecture that the problem is the final ":" as punctuation.  Does
that seem plausible?  If so, should we simply extend the escaping in the
links to handle this case (akin to the way spaces are escaping)?  Or am
I off base here?

* Notes:

* TODO Figure out org mode

Just do outlines with TODO's in them.  Change them to DONE when they are done.
You don't need to figure out how to use org-mode if you don't like.  We used it
on OBTW, and it worked fine.

If you like (I will probably do this), you can use the org-mode commands to add
deadlines and scheduling (or you can ignore them).  I will probably do this in
an incremental way so that I can further focus my mind on individual subsections
as they need to get written.  See example in 
[[*submit%20through%20submission%20site][submit through submission site:]]

* TODO submit through submission site:

* TODO Foobar

* Reference to foobar

[[*Foobar][Foobar]]

* Reference to submit...

[[*submit%20through%20submission%20site][submit through submission site]]
