      * Section 4.1. The method concatenates the various components of the URI,
      * using the appropriate delimiters:
      *
-     * - If a scheme is present, "://" MUST append the value.
-     * - If the authority information is present, that value will be
-     *   concatenated.
-     * - If the path is rootless and the authority information is present, the
-     *   path MUST be prefixed by a "/" character. Otherwise, the path can be
-     *   concatenated without additional delimiters.
-     * - If a query string is present, it MUST be prefixed by a "?" character.
-     * - If a URI fragment is present, it MUST be prefixed by a "#" character.
+     * - If a scheme is present, it MUST be suffixed by ":".
+     * - If an authority is present, it MUST be prefixed by "//".
+     * - The path can be concatenated without delimiters. But there are two
+     *   cases where the path has to be adjusted to make the URI reference
+     *   valid as PHP does not allow to throw an exception in __toString():
+     *     - If the path is rootless and an authority is present, the path MUST
+     *       be prefixed by "/".
+     *     - If the path is starting with more than one "/" and no authority is
+     *       present, the starting slashes MUST be reduced to one.
+     * - If a query is present, it MUST be prefixed by "?".
+     * - If a fragment is present, it MUST be prefixed by "#".
