Well, I find it quite strange to have such configuration but I'm not 
sure I would expect the same link as both of you. If I am in domainB, 
then subpages are with domainB prepended but linking to sub3 and subsub1 
from within domainA is not clear why it should privilege linking to 
domainB over domainA. It is a subpart of domainA after all.

Do you have a real world example of such a configuration? Because the 
only usecase I see would be something like that

- root (mysoftware.com)
   - sub1
   - sub2
   - documentation (doc.mysoftware.com)

But then this structure would be OK too:

- root (mysoftware.com)
   - sub1
   - sub2
   - shortcut documentation
- root2 (doc.mysoftware.com)
