Hi Nicolas,
I'm sorry I hadn't got back to this email – didn't notice it because of
a filtering mistake on my side.

Let me see; I'd first have to understand how this mechanism works. I do
not think it works in the same was as the old exporter worked. I.e. I
think the new mechanism does not automatically add [fragile] on, e.g.,
encountering the following:
#+LATEX: \begin{lstlisting}
#+LATEX: ...
#+LATEX: \end{lstlisting}

OK, I had checked this variable before, but I don't understand it. The
documentation says "List of element or object types producing verbatim
text". I presume "elements" and "objects" refer to things in Org-mode,
from which LaTeX is only generated later in the export process. And as
the only thing ("element" or "object"?) on the Org-mode side that
generates {lstlisting} environments is a SRC-BLOCK, there is probably no
way of teaching the exporter the pre-Org-8.0 behaviour explained above,
i.e. enabling [fragile] on encountering \begin{lstlisting}.

Such a feature would of course be nice to have. But it doesn't have the
highest priority for me, as I managed to reuse my existing
#+LATEX: \begin{lstlisting}
code, and as I'm not currently planning to export these Org files to
anything else but LaTeX-Beamer.
Cheers,
