[issue11467] urlparse.urlsplit() regression for paths consisting of digits

[Bastian Kleineidam]

Bastian Kleineidam <calvin at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

Regarding the correctness of the Python 2.6 implementation: http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1738.html specifies URLs of the form <scheme>:<scheme-specific-part> where the scheme specific part is allowed to consist only of digits.

I agree that the example URL is not a good one and it is artificially constructed.

Some better examples demonstrating the same issue might be
