[issue4493] urllib2 doesn't always supply / where URI path component is empty

[Wes Chow]

Wes Chow <wes.chow at gmail.com> added the comment:

This same bug also exists in HTTPClient, and my patch addresses that. Addressing it in HTTPClient has a side effect of taking care of it for urllib2 as well (and all future libraries that use HTTPClient).

Even if the urllib2 patch is preferable, shouldn't we fix the problem in HTTPClient as well?
