If you're having that problem, then either you've got old/poorly made
PDF files, or your PDF reader sucks.

And yes, KGhostView and KPDF both seem to suck.  Acrobat Reader does do
the linked bits properly, and is actually quite a bit faster than any other
PDF reader I've tried in Linux.  *shrug*

http://www.ee.ualberta.ca/~burns/web/Report.pdf has internal and external
hyperlinks in it that Acrobat follows quite nicely.  It was created in LaTeX
using the hyperref package:
