Comment:

 Even though I actually agree with @nacin, I also think that we need to
 consider situations where it may not be possible to make necessary changes
 in the server configuration. I recently came across the same problem on a
 client's project where I had a limited time to fix and had no access to
 the server that needs a modification in its configuration. Since
 prepending the site URL would do no harm to WordPress and actually solve
 people's problems, I think it should be implemented.

 I had to solve this problem quickly, so I put the following to the mu-
 plugins directory:

 {{{
 function merty_fix_redirect_location( $location ) {

         if ( '/' == $location[0] )
                 $location = site_url() . $location;

         return $location;
 }

 add_filter( 'wp_redirect', 'merty_fix_redirect_location' );
 }}}
