The base URI not well handled... *sigh*
For some reason, I have been struggling with this for a while. I guess
that my comment from March 26 doesn't hold anymore:
Revision 2.74
Maybe the base element problem is going to go away completely now.
I have added a change by John <rowe@excc.ex.ac.uk> which basically
does not trust HTTP::Response's base function, and it seems to be
the way to go.
Thanks for the report, I will have a look at that.
