No, you're forgetting the context of the test.  After your change it became

   (concat "file:///" file)

Here FILE is an *absolute* file name, which means it starts with a slash on a 
Posix system.  So you end up with four slashes.  Concatenating with file:// is 
the right thing to do for a POSIX-style file name, as Stefan said (and as I 
said 
in my original message).
