The problems arise when I cite a paper in the French text, such as "french french
french \citep{Author:year} french french french". I could surround each \citep
command by \selectlanguage{english}...\selectlanguage{french}, but it's certainly not
elegant !
Well, without looking into the definition of \citep I cannot
guarantee that this will work, but /if/ \citep is a simple
one-parameter macro, then the following might suffice :
\let \canonicalcitep = \citep
\def \citep {\passivecolon \canonicalcitep \activecolon}
\def \passivecolon {\catcode `\: = \catcode `\* \relax}
\def \activecolon {\catcode `\: = \active}

(Substitute another passive char for * if the latter turns
out not to be passive in this context).
