Uh, for the release notes, I am referencing the doc page about the
feature, and without the xref, I have to mention it twice, e.g.:

This allows efficient btree indexing of low cardinality columns
by storing duplicate keys only once. Users upgrading with <link
linkend="pgupgrade"><application>pg_upgrade</application></link>
will need to use <link
linkend="sql-reindex"><command>REINDEX</command></link> to make use
of this feature.

I am guessing I will have to put the <command> tags around the <xref>.
As you can see, pg_upgrade, is also missing an xreflabel.
