You don’t know. Just goes to show once again that Antone was
right all along to rail against abusing atom:link for that
purpose.

Of course you could say that consumers should disregard links
with relationships they don’t understand – which, incidentally,
is equivalent to disambiguating whether atom:link/@href is just
any URI or supposed to be dereferencable. Other than those of us
discussing the threading extension, noone has opined about that
matter.
