I'll admit it strikes me as a bit odd to be supporting platform-specific forms of _uniform_ resource identifiers. :-) Is this a standards-recognized form or is it just one that Microsoft made up? If it's valid under the standard, then I suppose it makes sense to support it. Then there is also the issue that things in APR-util are supposed to be platform-neutral... we'll have to figure out how to deal with that. That doesn't mean that I think we should move this stuff to APR, of course. We need to find a middle ground. --Cliff PS: Please be sure to follow our styleguide when submitting patches... namely, no tabs. :)
