I cannot reproduce this with the current master branch.
use-short-answers is not supposed to affect y-or-n-p at all, and in my
testing it doesn't: I don't need to type C-j or RET after "y", neither
when use-short-answers is nil nor when it's non-nil.

Can you show a complete detailed recipe that exhibits the problem?
(And I suggest "make bootstrap" first to make sure you don't see
strange effects of incompatible *.elc/*.eln files.)
