  Comments: 
Not an abbreviation of ござある, simply derived from it. Just as ます from まする is, or される from せられる.
No reference supports [abbr]

I don't think the xref to ござある is needed anymore, this xref from an archaic to an even more archaic term is just a hint to a (rather obvious) etymology now.
An xref to ございます far more appropriate if the sense note persists.

v4r

I don't see a reference without a 五段 tag, apart from refs like 角川古語大辞典 or weblio古語 obviously.
  Comments: 
v4r is used for classical verbs lacking the secondary onbin form of the 未然形, as caused by the volitional/hortative auxiliary verb う (<む).
Whether the 連用形 is い or り doesn't change the amount of stems present. Also ございます has its own entry in most dictionaries as well as here.

ござらむ > ござらう > ござろう

It's being conjugated as a v4r verb quite often. 御座いました as opposed to 御座りました etc. So v4r should be included.
