[webkit-help] file: scheme on Windows?

I've got a strange problem that I'm trying to track down. I've got 
WebKit.dll working in my Windows app, more or less.  It renders http: 
scheme URLs just fine.  Put that same content on my local filesystem and 
all I get is a blank white rectangle.  I've tried all the variants, 
e.g., given a file at

	C:\dir\foo.bar

I've tried

   file://localhost/C:/dir/foo.bar
   file://localhost/C|/dir/foo.bar
   file:///C:/dir/foo.bar
   file:///C|/dir/foo.bar

...all of which work with Safari and Firefox.

I'm using WebKit rev 57076.

Any suggestions?
