groff has this snippet:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(if (file-name-absolute-p raw-path)
(concat "file://" (expand-file-name raw-path))
(concat "file://" raw-path)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
which unconditionally adds an authority if I read it correctly.

Right, I didn't read as far into the patch.

Well, there's the option of correctly parsing into scheme, authority,
path, query and fragment... But that is probably not going into 8.2.6
in any case.

I forgot what the previous state was, but trying to fix file: URIs
without correctly parsing them sounds like a losing proposition.
