12.01.12 17:28:55,414 Safari: CFURLCreateAbsoluteURLWithBytes was passed these invalid relativeURLBytes (and no baseURL): '/' (a file system path instead of an URL string). The URL created will not work with most file URL functions. CFURLCreateFromFileSystemRepresentationRelativeToBase should be used instead. We should prevent this.

Created attachment 122350 [details] proposed fix This method is half-obsolete, but I'm not sure which other bottlenecks to patch. Maybe there aren't any yet.

This has a strange effect on where Safari tries to go when "/" is entered - I'm going to look into that separately.

> This has a strange effect on where Safari tries to go when "/" is entered - I'm going to look into that separately. That turned out to be in Safari code.
