Url doesn't get changed for the home page

Hi,

First of all, an apology... I am submitting this bug but I don't actually use the module myself. I am the maintainer of Drigg http://drupal.org/project/drigg and got this reported by a user who manages an internationalised web site. I investigated it on their live site.
Basically, url('') returns the site's home page, rather than returning the *internationalised* home page. So, if the site is visiting http://www.example.com/it/something/else, and one of the modules displays a link to the home page with link(''), the link returned is http://www.example.com/ rather than http://www.example.com/it

I have to be honest: I haven't actually been able to work out how you even *do* this drupal-wise (changing the URLs like that... adding a bit at the beginning!). What I did find out, however, is that url('') really ought to return the main URL with the "internationalised" bit at the beginning.

Again, apologies if I didn't provide a patch. In fact, shame on me for reporting something for a module I can't really use... however, I hope you'll be able to have a look at it :-D

Bye!

Merc.
