Are you referring to a specific outstanding Bugzilla bug report?  I'm not
aware of a current issue (I thought it was addressed already).

In principle, the new org.apache.catalina.util.URL is unlikely to deal
with problems like this -- it does *not* included any openConnection() or
openStream().  The problem that brought this about was that java.net.URL
requires a valid URLStreamHandler, which means you cannot use it (for
example) to do a response.sendRedirect() to an "https" server unless the
*calling* Tomcat JVM has JSSE available.
