Implemented the workaround. Should be fixed now.

Hi,
Today, some users on ro.wp reported that the citations used more than once in the text had changed appeareance. Instead of "^a,b", we now have something like "↑ 34,0 34,1". This was considered disturbing by some users. Furthermore, the backlinks from the notes section to the article are not functioning. This does not happen on en.wp or other wikis. See http://ro.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorin_Goian vs. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyozellus
From [[Special:Version]], I checked that the versions of the Cite extension were identical, then I searched for a relevant bug in bugzilla, both at the "Site requests" and at the "Cite extension", but I could find nothing. Does anybody know what is the matter with the links? I did not file a bug report because I'm not sure if this is a php problem or some setting on ro.wp which makes the extension misbehave.
Thanks a lot for any pointers, Strainu
The problem are actually links to anchors starting with an underscore, which was broken in r68358 (they get stripped). It already was reported as bug 27474, but I had to rediscover it the hard way. You can work around it by changing http://ro.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:cite_reference_link_pref... to not begin with an underscore (the default since r32160, cite_ref- works fine). I reverted it on r85481.
