Comment (by zamoose):

 The patch looks good except for one thing: both relative and absolute
 server paths are caught by it and (incorrectly) routed to
 $SERVER['HTTP_HOST'], n'est ce pas?  The ticket submitter requested that
 both relative (''audio/audio.mp3'') '''and''' absolute
 (''/audio/audio.mp3'') work.  Would not the current solution direct both
 links to http://$SERVER_URL/audio/audio.mp3, which is fine for
 ''/audio/audio.mp3'' but which would be incorrect for anyone with a blog
 URL in any place other than the root for ''audio/audio.mp3''.  If there's
 no leading slash, oughtn't we just use ''bloginfo('url')'' or similar?
