Martin Panter added the comment:

urllib2_redirect_fix.2.patch adds a test.

I was tempted to remove the whole block of code setting the path to “/”, but 
there is one minor disadvantage: if a redirect points to a so-called 
“malformed” URL without any path component, like “http://example.net” or 
“http://example.net?query”, geturl() would return this URL verbatim.
