I've added Protesilaos to the CCs, in case he hasn't seen the bug
report. (Generally it is recommended to add a "X-Debbugs-CC" header if
you can find the maintainer).

Why do you think this is a problem with exporting, rather than with
parsing? Either way, it might be worth involving some Org people in
this report.
