But that's an absolute URL, provided a well-defined base URI exists (the
authority is implied and the path component starts with a slash, so it
would start in the root).

Then Safari either has a bug or it determines the base URI differently
than Chrome.

I don't think so.  You might want to read

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986

specifically the part about the translation of relative URI.
