My suspicions seem to be correct.
The simplest way to fix the problem is to put a single
instance of  \protect  into  hyperref.sty ; viz.

Turn this:

   \def\bibcite#1#2{%
     \@newl at bel{b}{#1\@extra at binfo}{%
       \hyper@@link[cite]{}{cite.#1\@extra at b@citeb}{#2}%

into this:

   \def\bibcite#1#2{%
     \@newl at bel{b}{#1\@extra at binfo}{%
       \protect\hyper@@link[cite]{}{cite.#1\@extra at b@citeb}{#2}%

This occurs at
    line  3972  in  hyperref.sty [2007/02/07 v6.75r
and at
    line 4939  in  hyperref.sty [2008/04/05 v6.77l
    (line 8328 of the corresponding  hyperref.dtx ).

Hopefully there are no new problems introduced
by this change. It's hard to envision how any
might occur --- but I've been wrong before.
