[Orgmode] bug in org-latex.el

[John Rakestraw]

Hi, List --

I'm reluctant to post this to the list, because I know next to nothing
about lisp. But here goes.

I'm writing in org and exporting to pdf via C-C C-E d. The exporter was
stumbling over a URL in the text, with the error message indicating
that "org-export-latex-protect-special" is void. I made two small
changes in org-export.el; now the export works and the URL is indeed
clickable in the pdf. See the patch below.

Of course, I could well have broken something....

Org-mode version 6.29trans (release_6.29c.110.gca19.dirty)
GNU Emacs 23.1.1 (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu
