Much thanks. I found that with following I can use most of hyperlinks:

\protected\def\pdfdest {\pdfextension dest }
\protected\def\pdfoutline {\pdfextension outline}
\protected\def\pdfstartlink {\pdfextension startlink}
\protected\def\pdfendlink {\pdfextension endlink}


However, AMS-TeX completely messes up the layout. I guess I will have
to debug it.
