Description Nick Kew 2004-04-18 00:29:38 UTC 
A URL starting with two slashes is defined by RFC2396 #4.3 as having an
"authority" component, but apr_uri_parse incorrectly assigns it to the path.

Comment 2 Nick Kew 2004-04-18 00:35:20 UTC 
There are a lot of links of this form at slashdot.org.  Browsers parse them.  So
this is not an ivory-tower RFC issue.
Comment 3 Nick Kew 2004-04-18 08:03:28 UTC 
The patch should be superseded by the cumulative patch recently submitted under
Bug 28453.
Comment 4 Nick Kew 2004-09-06 08:55:33 UTC 
APR/1.0 fixes this.
