+Summary: Uri.LocalPath returns invalid path for relative paths
+
+The System.Uri class does not deal correctly with the following relative
+paths :
+
+./
+../
+
+An URI starting with ./ or ../ is considered as a valid file URI, but the
+LocalPath property does not return a path that corresponds with the
+original URI.
+
+eg. ./testfile will become //./testfile
+
+Apparently MS.NET does not consider a path starting with .\ or ..\ a valid
+uri (and throws an exception in this case), but Mono does.  This is not a
+problem by itself, if the LocalPath property would return a valid path that
+actually corresponds with the URI.
+
+I attached a repro that demonstrates this behaviour.
