Description:
------------
parse_url will falsely use the hostname as path if url doesn't include the scheme part.




Test script:
---------------
php > echo var_dump(parse_url('hejhopp.com/'));


Expected result:
----------------
array(1) {
  ["host"]=>
  string(11) "hejhopp.com"
  ["path"]=>
  string(1) "/"
}

Actual result:
--------------
array(1) {
  ["path"]=>
  string(12) "hejhopp.com/"
}

The function is designed to work with a fully qualified URL, does the manual 
suggest otherwise?

Yes the manual suggests otherwise.

"Partial URLs are also accepted, parse_url() tries its best to parse them correctly." - php manual

I would expect parse_url to try to parse from left to right starting with scheme and then moving on to host.
