    2. The function url-cookie-retrieve constructs its path-regexp with a
       leading "^".

That function does not explain very clearly what it is supposed to do.
What does the argument PATH mean?  Could you show me some examples
of it?  Why is it wrong to add ^?  Could you show me the specific
code you are talking about (the reference is somewhat ambiguous)?
