Up to RC8 it was possible to use the url tag of FUD for relative links as well. This makes sense if you just want to point to something on the same server and saves some typing.
However I've just noticed that this seems to be somewhat broken. When providing a relative url by using:
[url=../doc/RTFM.php]Manual[/url]
an "http://" gets appended and terribly messes up the whole thing.
However, providing an absolute url doesn't work either because then the "http://" will be appended once more and cause an invalid url.
Correcting this link or restore it to a relative url by editing the message will make the link completely go away. The editing mode then will reveal some html code used for generating the link, which shouldn't be around at all.
I don't know whether it's been already fixed, but I thought mentioning it couldn't hurt. The installation is a stock RC 9 with the exception that I replaced the src file which caused the newline issue (see other thread started by me) with the fixed one from CVS.
