UrlTag mishandles foreign root context URIs [SPR-12782]

[spring-projects-issues]

Pavel Horal opened SPR-12782 and commented

When constructing URL for a foreign root context (i.e. /):

<spring:url value="/foo" context="/" />

the expected output is /foo.

However UrlTag incorrectly renders //foo, which is equivalent to incorrect URL http://foo.

This behavior is also inconsistent with the JSTL's <c:url> tag.
