who can fix babel-french incompatibility with crossreftools

[Zdenek Wagner]

Hi all,

this is not just a problem of French, Czech and Slovak activates a
hyphen, Latin has active characters, Slovak even activates ^ which
makes sequences like ^^A and ^^cd unavailable (and it cannot be solved
by \string). I am afraid that many other clashes can occur.
