Message #5 received at submit <at> debbugs.gnu.org (full text, mbox):
[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
If you call browse-url-emacs with a file:// url, Emacs does not open the correct file:
(browse-url-emacs "file://~/a/b") opens /a/b
(browse-url-emacs "file://a/b") opens /b
Basically unless the path is an absolute path, the first level is chopped because url parses it as host and throws it away. This patch concats the host back. If the path is absolute, host is empty string so it’s ok.

That is correct. The component after file:// is always the host part.
See RFC8089 for the full specification.

The host part can be non-empty, too.

I think your URLs lack one or two more slashes. See
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_URI_scheme#How_many_slashes?
Added tag(s) moreinfo.
