This is from Gisle Aas <aas@bergen.sn.no>.  The regular expression
in Appendix B can be slightly simplified from

      ^(([^/?#]+):)?(//([^/?#]*))?([^?#]*)?(\?([^#]*))?(#(.*))?
                                          ^
                                          redundant
to
      ^(([^/?#]+):)?(//([^/?#]*))?([^?#]*)(\?([^#]*))?(#(.*))?
