that's because $r->parsed_uri is the parse uri from the http request,
which does not contain scheme/hostname/port, unless the request is a proxy

that's a shortcut for building "self urls", if you don't specify a url,
the Apache::URI is filled in with everything it can dig out of the
request object (including scheme/hostname/port)
