[pdftex] hyperref + makeindex + font change

[Marc LAZAREFF]

Hello,

I have been using PDFLaTeX with great pleasure for the documentation of
the elsA CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) software :

  http://www.onera.fr

but I just stumbled on a fine point :

 - latex + makeindex + font change commands :

  \newcommand{\eldfindx}[1]{{\bfseries#1}} % definition for some elsA
notion
  \newcommand{\fcname}[2][]{{\nobreak\sttfont #2}\cohchk{fcname :
#2}\ifthenelse{\equal{#1}{def}}{\index{#2|eldfindx}}{\index{#2}}}

  = success

- pdflatex + hyperref + makeindex (without font change commands)

  = success

- pdflatex + hyperref + makeindex + font change command

  = ???

This is because the hyperref package :
  Package: hyperref 2001/05/26 v6.71g Hypertext links for LaTeX

already uses the font change command for its own use, through the
'hyperpage' macro :

  ...
\def\hyperpage#1{\@hyperpage#1----\\}
\def\@hyperpage#1--#2--#3\\{%
  \ifx\\#2\\%
    \@commahyperpage{#1}%
  \else
    \hyperlink{page.#1}{#1}--\hyperlink{page.#2}{#2}%
  \fi
}

  ...
    \def\@wrindex#1{\@@wrindex#1||\\}
    \def\@@wrindex#1|#2|#3\\{%
      \ifx\\#2\\%
        \protected at write\@indexfile{}{%
          \string\indexentry{#1|hyperpage}{\thepage}%
   ...

and I could not find a viable modification to suit my purpose.

Thanks in advance for any help|direction|proof of impossibility,

Marc
