> axutil_uri_parse_string() appears designed to handle parsing of URLs, not 
> generic URIs (which consist of both URLs and URNs). A URN consists of a 
> scheme ("urn") followed by a colon, a namespace, another colon an then a name 
> within that namespace. The name itself may contain further colons.
> It appears that axutil_uri_parse_string is expecting that a second colon in 
> the input string to indicate the start of the port number 
> (http://somehost:port/blah), and if that string can't be converted to a 
> number, the uri is invalid. With a URN this isn't the case 
> (urn:ietf:rfc:2648). Unfortunately, the failure isn't communicated upwards. 
> axutil_uri_parse_string() should be modified to accept both urls and urns, 
> and the API updated appropriately (when called on a urn, 
> axutil_uri_get_port() should return an error value, etc.). a new function to 
> determine if the uri is a urn or url should be added, and new functions to 
> access the urn specific components added.
> In my particular case, the incorrect parsing is hampering interaction with an 
> ebXML registry/repository, which indicates operation status in the form of a 
> uri attribute in the returned structure.
