Well, indeed - the URLClassLoader defines a set of behaviours as you
describe below which makes the slash relevant.

But that doesn't mean we can't look at appending the slash ourselves, so
long as we can figure out a way to determine it's an appropriate action
and can apply it consistently.

First thing to do is go look at all the code paths - I'm suspecting we
could do this consistently for services configured/started via
com.sun.jini.start but I'm not sure about clients and cases where
-Djava.rmi.server.codebase is used.
