Re: LateX to epub -- label rendering

[John MacFarlane <jgm-TVLZxgkOlNX2fBVCVOL8/A@public.gmane.org>]

The LaTeX reader will do some resolution of labels/references,
but in your case the intervening `\markboth` seems to be messing
it up.  See what happens when that is removed:

% pandoc -f latex -t html  
\chapter{First chapter}\label{ch:un}

Foo bar

See chapter \ref{ch:un}
^D
<h1 id="ch:un">First chapter</h1>
<p>Foo bar</p>
<p>See chapter <a href="#ch:un" data-reference-type="ref" data-reference="ch:un">1</a></p>

This is something that could be improved, if you'd like to
create a bug report.
