Well, I have to disagree : see NSURL.m line 837. I want to type
http://philou:address@hidden/ but when parsing philou: NSURL thinks it's
a hostname followed by a port and is expecting a numeric value.

My code used to function (NSURL URLWithString returning nil with a non
valid string) until I updated to trunk yesterday or two days ago. I did
an update 10 minutes ago and got a modification on NSException.m. Now
the exception only logs <NSException: 0x84c4e88> NAME:NSGenericException
REASON:illegal character in port part INFO:(nil) instead of the previous
big blob but the problem remains.
