[Mono-list] Problem with URI

[John Anderson]

Right now unix paths are being accepted as a valid absolute path, but in
ms.net the path "/test.aspx"  is relative

and since there is no real way to differentiate between the 2 I suggest we
force unixpaths to have file:// on them
or we can do a specific check when passing UriKind.Relative to accept rooted
locations like /test.aspx

heres the patch to force file:// on unix paths
