If you're parsing a url string which includes a protocol, I think the third
argument shouldn't do anything at all, which is what you're seeing, it only
affects urls like "//foo/bar/baz" with no protocol, which would usually, in
the web world, mean a relative path on the current host, but in some
contexts (such as SMB paths, but I'm sure there's others) means "bar/baz"
on server "foo", which is what that third parameter is for.
Also, when running your code, I'm seeing a preceding slash on .pathname in
all instances, which matches expectations, what version of Node are you
running?
