The online docs say the return value is system-dependent.
However I think they mean OS-dependent and not VM implementation.

My JDK 1.2 installation returns `file:/tmp/myname' (when run in /tmp).
Classpath looks like it would return `file:///tmp/myname'.

Sigh.  `file:' URLs suck, since everybody gets confused about leading
`/'s.

Anyway, I agree we have a bug.  The URL we return is clearly not
correct.  I've added this to my (stunningly long) to-do list.
