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.
