@Daniel -- that 'V' view bug should be reported against apport, that is rather, sad.
I think you are saying that if the file already exists then the linking code will emit a non-absolute link, if it is missing then an absolute one. I think this is born out by my system which clearly has a reinstalled kernel at the same version on it:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Nov 4 18:45 initrd.img -> boot/initrd. img-3.8. 0-32-generic img-3.8. 0-32-generic
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Nov 4 18:45 initrd.img.old -> /boot/initrd.
The first one (.old) would have not had an initrd in place when linking the other would.
