This seems to be a question of objective. Do you want to encode, i.e.
maintain some reversible original in an url no matter what, or do you
want to fix url's which wouldn't otherwise be legal? In the latter case,
the question mark should probably be retained.

I've tried this with Org 7.9.3 and 8.2.5h to the same result:

Here is a [[http://google.com/search?q=orgmode][link]]

Exporting to HTML doesn't transform the link but exporting to LaTeX results in
the (non-working) http://google.com/search?%3Dorgmode
Is there a reason for this behavior and, if so, a way to work around it?
RFC 3986 2.2 explicitly says URLs may include `=` and =url-encode-url= doesn't
change the link in question.
I've played with org-url-hexify-p and read past ML discussions, but
they seem primarily concerned with characters which should not appear
in URIs.
Thanks,

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---------------
Hi Andreas,
Thanks for this. I had time to dig further and it seems that the 'problem' is
the default value of org-link-escape-chars, which explicitly escapes = as well
as other valid URL characters.
Perhaps someone more familiar with this code could explain the choice these
escapes.
Michael
[Subject updated because the problem isn't LaTeX specific in 8.2.5h, only in
7.9.3]
