I don't see the bug in parseURL, there is a test for the mandatory '=' character that separates the digest algorithm from the digest value. The comment is looked for relative from the '=' character.

By looking more careful at the java.net.URL implementation I now
understand the code block executed in parseURL for "a relative URL that
only specifies a comment".

Second, the fix in the patch treats the '=' characters as optional instead of required. I would prefer that the method explicitly return false if the '=' characters are missing from either string, or not located at the same index.

You are right, will do that.

I also modified Freds test class so it's easier to run and doesn't rely
on a Sun specific security provider. It begs the question what we are
going to do with these unit tests ...

It looks like Fred and I agree on the fix so I will commit it in a few
hours.
