That's fine, a few failing tests is better than completely failing.

Perhaps we can depend on the URI.pm module?  It seems to be
widely-available and not be a significant barrier to installation.  On
the other hand, I don't know its history, either (especially since we're
now dealing with SVN changes...).

Anyways, I don't like relying on operator overloading, it makes code
harder to read and review.
