Invalid URL with tomcat

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Just configure the URL to some hudson server hosted by tomcat
2. Get an invalid URL message

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Correct URL

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Hudson-eclipse 1.0.3

Please provide any additional information below.
Tomcat version: 5.5.23
Hudson version: 1.143

The URL I use is really simple, something like: http://myserver/hudson.
After some investigations, I found that the error comes from a tomcat 
'invalid request' message.

If I type the URL as: http://myserver//hudson (notice the double '/'), the
Hudson view works, but not the links(opened internally in eclipse).

I modified the source and replaced the getRelativePath method in HudsonClient.
See the diff below.

I just keeps the first '/' character from the entered URL, that way, URL are 
always got as absolute.

It is a quick modification, and I do not know if it works in all cases.

I just added the patch as a file (it seems my copy/paste was a bit erroneous)
