Details:

The attached test program yields the following output on Mac OS X:

2009-01-25 14:18:06.609 path-osx[11710] path = /usr
2009-01-25 14:18:06.611 path-osx[11710] url = file://localhost/usr/
2009-01-25 14:18:06.613 path-osx[11710] [url path] = /usr

but this one on GNUstep:

2009-01-25 14:18:47.937 path-gnustep[11713] path = /usr
2009-01-25 14:18:47.943 path-gnustep[11713] url = file:/usr/
2009-01-25 14:18:47.945 path-gnustep[11713] [url path] = /usr/

This subtle difference turns out to be the cause of an issue where Gorm (but
also other applications which work with directory wrappers) may open multiple
copies of the same document.

BTW Also note the additional host component in the OS X URL.
