> The Xerces URI implementation currently rejects URIs with one characters 
> schemes, such as "g:h". This restriction isn't part of RFC 2396, and although 
> it's there to help flag DOS file names, it makes it impossible for users who 
> literally mean to specify URIs with one character scheme names.
> I think if this isn't intended to be fixed it should at least be marked as a 
> limitation within the documentation for Xerces so users know what behaviour to 
> expect.
> I certainly wouldn't expect if I specified a base URI of "http://a/b/c/d/e" and 
> relative URI of "g:h" that the resolved URI be "http://a/b/c/d/g:h" instead 
> of "g:h".
> Relevant production:
> scheme = alpha *( alpha | digit | "+" | "-" | "." )
