  following the mauve testlet commit, here is the fix proposition in

  Basically, we were explicitly preventing directories to be retrieved
as file resources, while I don't see any reason to do so (nor sun
implementors afaik).
  So, I propose this very trivial patch to deal with it.

Looks like I was the one who disabled this behavior in rev 1.32.
Right now I can't remember why. But I think there was some bug in
the previous code. Note rev 1.32 removed code in getInputStream()
too, which is where ISTR the bug was.

I can't access the archives right now (web site too slow) but it
might be worth checking them for the original reasoning for the change.
Had something to do with something working with file:// URLs but not
http:// URLs, or the other way around, or...

Otherwise it looks OK to me.
