This issue has now been fixed in the development trunk of OpenERP.
Since rc1 you can define a journal of type 'Sale Refund' with a different sequence.

Status in OpenObject Addons Modules: Fix Released

Bug description:
Currently it is not possible to have different sequences for invoices and refund invoices, and have at the same time sequences by fiscal year.

On the current implementation (5.0 revno 2536 and trunk 2749), you can either (note: I'm talking just about sales, but it is the same for purchases):
  - Use a sequence for sale invoices, and a different sequence for sale refund invoices. This is done by default:
  - Use a sequence by fiscal year (for both the sale invoices and the sale refund invoices); the sequence used (that has subsequences by fiscal year) is specified on the journal configuration.

But it is not possible to:
  - Use a sequence by fiscal year for the sale invoices, and a different sequence by fiscal year for the sale refund invoices. (not possible because you can only specify a sequence per journal, and both the sale invoices and sale refunds use the same journal!)

On some countries (like Spain), it is required that refund invoices use a different sequence than normal invoices; plus, companies usually use sequences per fiscal year.

It's an easy-to solve problem, though... we just need to be able to define both the invoice and refund sequences for the journals, and let action_number (in account/invoice.py) use the right one. See the attached patch.
  * Note: See the comments. There is an alternative way to solve it: 'fix' the refund wizard from the account module, so it uses the "refund journal" option of the journals.
