If you run urlparse.urljoin() on a file: URL, the resulting URL 
has together with the wrong number of '/'s in it.

Properly formed, the URL (assuming no netloc) should have 
three slashes, so that it looks like "file:///...". The current 
code drops that down to one.

The error appears to be in a condition in urlunsplit(). It 
doesn't show up except in this one instance because the 
test is only run iff the scheme is in the list of those that can 
take a netloc and there is no netloc present in the URL. 
Apparently, this is pretty rare.

Patch attached that corrects the condition.

Not sure who is best to review this?  Fred?  Jeremy? 
Someone else?

This patch works for me.  I have a test too.  Assign back to
me if you want me to check it in.

Looks good to me; go ahead and check it in with the tests.

Thanks!
