hm, normally being logged in does the trick, not sure why it did not
work for you.

well, as you certainly know ':' is used as path separator on linux so
when attempting to resolve the path it thinks it is handed a list of
paths instead and splits at the ':'.

yes, I think you need to escape the ':' in the path, i.e. pass something
like "/home/dave/test\:filename.wrl" and the PathHandler has to check if
the path separator is actually escaped before splitting.
Hm, perhaps the path handler should be rewritten with boost filesystem,
I'd assume that would take care of a lot of nasty cases, although
offhand I don't know if they have support for path lists.
Anyway, thanks for the report, I've flagged it in my inbox so it does
not get forgotten.
Cheers,
Carsten
