 Which links are relative? Please provide steps to reproduce.

 but that's not relevant to this ticket).

 Oh well that would mean we need a XML parser then. I see no chance to
 handle that ''properly'' without PHP5 and DOMDOCUMENT. With the great
 [http://www.fluentdom.org/ FluentDom Lib] this would be quite easy. But no
 luck here for WordPress with the current system requirements. Alternative
 is some crappy regex I guess.
