  Hi Michael,

sorry for the delay, I was travelling again last week (should be back
to normal for the next months). Yes the patch looks fine but as pointed
out the xmlBuildURI() call is unecessary I guess, even if the passed
fle name can't be parsed as an URI the code should work the same if only
one branch of the if/then/else is kept.
  Would you mind doing a reduced patch ?

    thanks,

Daniel
