           Summary: fn-resolve-uri-4
           Product: XML Query Test Suite
           Version: 1.0.2
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

The expected result for fn-resolve-uri-4 assumes that "http://" is not
a valid URI. However, I suppose it is valid according to both RFC 3986 and RFC
2396.

Specically, the both RFCs allow authority component to be empty. For example in
RFC 3986 we read: 

  authority   = [ userinfo "@" ] host [ ":" port ]

  host =        IP-literal / IPv4address / reg-name

  reg-name   = *( unreserved / pct-encoded / sub-delims )

Here '*' means zero-or-more and '[ smth ]' means optional.
