I think, the man page pkg.conf(5) should > mention this, esp. when the old systax does not work anymore. pkg.conf(5) refers to libfetch(3) [this should be fetch(3)], which explains the syntax, which correctly mentions file:///, but in a very unreadable way: <scheme>:(//(<user>(:<pwd>)?@)?<host>(:<port>)?)?/(<document>)? But: This allows file:/path, which your tests show to fail.
