Interaction between hyperref and marginpar?
I have a document with margin notes in which cite commands are used. I have the problem that the first line of the margin note does not match the line in the text if the margin note starts with cite and the option backref is used in hyperref.
MWE:
documentclass{article}
setlength{textwidth}{12cm} % to have enough space for margin notes
setlength{marginparwidth}{8cm} % ditto
usepackage{natbib}
usepackage[backref]{hyperref}
bibliographystyle{chicago}
begin{document}
Note marginpar{See cite{Other1980}} that this margin
comment should start on this line and it does.
vspace{baselineskip}
Note marginpar{cite{Other1980}} that this margin
comment should start on this line but it does not.
bibliography{refs}
end{document}
with refs.bib containing
@article{Other1980,
Author = {A. N. Other},
Title = {1 + 1 = 3},
Journal = {J. Irreproducible Results},
Year = 1980}}
The output is:

Note how 'Other (1980)' is below the corresponding line of text if the margin note starts with cite whereas it is correctly aligned if the margin comments starts with text. On the other hand, if I comment out the option backref, I get both margin notes correctly aligned:

Now 'Other (1980)' is correctly aligned with the second line of text.
How can I get proper alignment with backref even if the margin note does start with cite? Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

marginpar{leavevmodecite{moore}}gives the expected results with bothbackrefsettings. I assume withbackrefhyperrefadds code before the actualciteand confuses the boxing...
