I'm not sure we mean the same thing by "workaround"!

Well, that's just how it is at the moment, as far as I know, not necessarily a
strong decision. We might be able to define it some other way, maybe something
like:
PATH[@PEG] | SCHEME://HOST[/[URLPATH][@PEG]]
such that your usage would do what you want. That might be a good idea. I don't
know.

Oh, so it does! That's a bug: we're not supposed to be looking for a peg after
the last "/". I suspect what is happening is the path is being "canonicalised"
first, which whould strip off the final "/", but that's wrong and Troy Curtis
is already working on a patch to fix the parsing of peg-revs with
repository-relative URLs, and hopefully that will fix this too.

Thanks. If you'd like to help see if Troy's patch fixes the above usage, that
would be great. (No worries if not.) His last revision of the patch is at
<http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2008-05/0477.shtml> and he hopes to send a
revised version soon.
