 Are you passing an integer, or a string of the ID? Using (int)$term will
 retrieve a term by id, (string)$id will cause it to do a slug lookup
 instead, This is standard across the board for the taxonomy API. Can you
 confirm if this is the way you're calling get_term_link() ?

 > term name and that name legitimately includes a "/" the term link can't
 be found.
 There's another ticket for this #16282, get_term_link() has never been
 designed to be passed a term name. Rather, a term slug. In 3.1 this is
 being caught a bit more, but it has always been a possibility through
 other versions.
