Orgmode (.org) to Markdown (.md) not handling in-page link correctly

[TRS-80 <lists.trs-80-C7oIis/24ff2zvSPaPeTFA@public.gmane.org>]

Hallo,

First time I ever emailed this list.  I would like to thank everyone for
all their hard work.  I think Pandoc is the neatest thing since sliced
bread and I recommend it to people all the time.  :)

I ran into small issue recently, trying to convert Orgmode to Markdown.
I was using command line (v 2.9.2.1-1+b1, amd64, Debian Testing):

```
pandoc -f org -t commonmark README.org
```

I actually tried all flavors of Markdown as output, as I recall all had
the same result.  Which was that an inline link to somewhere in the same
page did not end up in the output correctly.  Example:

```
[[*Setup][Setup]]
```

Which in Orgmode is a link to the headline Setup on the same page, with
the description "Setup."

However this gets converted to italicized text, instead of a link for
some reason?  Output becomes:

```
*Setup*
```

I don't know enough about pandoc internals to know whether it's on the
Orgmode part or the Markdown part, or somewhere in between.

As instructed on Help page[0], I searched both the mailing list as well
as GitHub issues but did not seem to find anything related.  So I
thought the best first step might be to start here on the mailing list.

Cheers,
TRS-80
