I've put the same comment as in the following issue.

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-929?focusedCommentId=13001748#comment-13001748

I am using httpclient 4.1. I had a problem with this fix. In 
DefaultRequestDirector.rewriteRequestURI method, for non-proxied URI and when 
it is a absolute URI, it will call the URIUtils.rewriteURI, which then take the 
"RawPath" from an uri and normalize it. So when I pass an uri, for example, 
http://www.whatever.com/1//3, it will automatically remove the extra slash and 
become http://www.whatever.com/1/3. I've got a REStful service to accept the 
uri (/{param1}/{param2}/{param3}) and it takes when there is an empty value 
past in. Now because of the auto slash removal, the "3" value shift left for a 
position and match to the {param2}. I wouldn't say the above solution is wrong, 
but I guess it should not change what value that user pass in.
