 I couldn't reproduce this. In my test case, a sever name that cannot be 
 resolved results in an UnknownHostException, and the file protocol 
 handler works correctly. One problem that could result in an NPE was if 
 you used a file: URL containing a hostname. The file handler would 
 (correctly) attempt to switch to the ftp handler, however we dont have 
 the ftp handler yet. I'm going to check in a patch which will make it 
 throw a more informative IOException.

 Bryce.
