Absolute href are broken if trac is installed in root path

[anonymous]

Hi,

If an absolute href is broken trac is installed at root of the domain.

For exemple, if you install your trac at http://trac.myproject.org/ and configure

[mainnav]
wiki.href = /wiki/Home

then TracMenus generates href 'wiki/Home'. This broke the link. (wiki is a netloc).

The offending code is : ​http://trac-hacks.org/browser/menusplugin/0.11/tracmenus/web_ui.py#L139

menu[name]['label']=menu[name].setdefault('label', html.a())(href=value.startswith('/') and req.href()+value or value)

reg.href() returns '/'. You should trim beginning '' in the resulting href.
