Your new code here expects that 'path' could be either an absolute local
path (know as a 'dirent'), or a 'relpath' ...

... but here (if old_target is a URL) the code requires that 'path' is a
relpath. So what happens if 'path' is a 'dirent'? Does this
'url_add_component' line get executed (and if so it will produce wrong
results), or does it not get executed (and if not, why not)?
