Unless I am mistaken this could be the referring link that doesn't get defined. 
removing it will cause the requirement for it to be defined to go away. If we 
have actually brought this link into play through fixing a bug then it would 
indicate a problem with the link definition.

Is this for all such links or only one? Could content ever be empty?

I tried an experiment and when I used <a href="#notdefined">jump</a> I get an 
error "ValueError: format not resolved notdefined". Since your error refers to 
an unnamed string it probably means something is wrong with the value of content.
