1 - Inside a dir in some server place an index.html file that redirects to some
other file in the same dir using only the other file name as the relative
redirect URL (ex:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="0;URL=test.html">
)
2 - Call the dir mentioned above without the trailing / (ex:
http://www.somehost.org/testdir )
Te redirect will go to
	http://www.somehost.org/test.html
instead of the expected
	http://www.somehost.org/testdir/test.html

Giving bug a title and changing component to necko.

This works fine for me based on the test at
http://www.fas.harvard.edu/~dbaron/tests/nglayout/meta_refresh.html on the
following builds:
 * Linux apprunner 1999-08-16-08-M9
 * Linux apprunner 1999-09-03-11-M11

Marking WORKSFORME.  If you said what build you saw the problem I might be able
to see it too and whether it was fixed since.

I missed the part about the index.html.  Reopening.

Somehow the URL of the page is not being changed for a redirect (which is what
happens when you omit the / on a directory).  This is probably a duplicate of
some other bug, but it may be worth testing with meta refreshes too...
