I don't think that bug is really the culprit. This is actually a culmination of
changes starting with the multiple guarantors development. The decision was
made to leave the alternate contact as a 'non-koha patron' guarantor, but no
provision was made to be able to apply a relationship to that field!

I think the solution is not to revert bug 26995, but to develop an Alternate
Contact relationship field ( e.g. 'altcontactrelationship' ) that uses the same
set of relationship options available for patron-based guarantors.
