Bug Description

Description: Ubuntu 11.04
Release: 11.04

freepops:
  Installed: 0.2.9-4.2

When browser.lua gets the url http://host/directory1/file and is redirected by the server with an absolute path in Location, then it fails and fetches the wrong url.

If Location is "/directory2/file2", then it should get http://host/directory2/file2, but in the current version it gets http://host/directory1/directory2/file2 instead.

Patch follows.
