Having a look here, WRT to the patch v4 it seems the problem is that
patch v4 doesn't support v2.6.x behavior, namely that cross-prefix symrefs will
not be shortened at all. As per the format given in the last patch
[16/16] it shortens
the symref irrespective of being cross-prefix symrefs.

Would it be a good idea to enforce this as in v2.6.x or change it as
to allow shortening
of cross-prefix symrefs.
