The assumption in ant for a long time is that "/x/y/z" is an absolute
file name, and thus should not be prepended by ${basedir}.
Is the test that is failing:
assertEqualsIgnoreDriveCase(dosRoot + File.separator + "foo",
FILE_UTILS.fromURI("file:///foo")); ?
We should investigate why this fails in jdk1.3 and not in (I assume)
jdk1.4 or higher.
One thing I can see that is different is
Locator#fromURI(String),
this explicitly checks for jdk 1.4 and uses the
new File(new java.net.URI#fromURI(String)).getAbsolutePath() to do the
conversion.
for jdk1.3 or lower it does the conversion by hand, it may be that the
conversion needs to be modifed to reflect the 1.4 behaviour.

I agree on principles, although I don't mind either way in practice, as
long as we document it accurately. --DD
