You're misinterpreting this slightly: the "." is not a path, it's the
host name. The path begins with the third slash, and there is no such
thing as relative paths in file:// URLs.

But yes, this is a known bug, see this thread, for example:

http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2013-08/0355.shtml

There's a partial fix on trunk (http://svn.apache.org/r1516806), and
nominated for backport to 1.8.
