Description:
------------
parse_url() in 5.3.5 would return false when called with ':' (malformed url).

When called with ':' in 5.3.6 parse_url() returns:

array (
    'path' => ':',
)

Test script:
---------------
var_dump(parse_url(':'));

Expected result:
----------------
bool(false)


Actual result:
--------------
array(1) {
  ["path"]=>
  string(1) ":"
}

in php 5.3.6 , url.c line 188 added a condition   if (pp - p > 0 && pp - p < 6 && 
(*pp == '/' || *pp == '\0'))  ...

"pp-p >0" which make the whole flow changed 

then result a valid ret->path return,   hope this could be a help :P
