This modification in lib/Vend/Util.pm works for me.  I'm not
sure of what grand schemes I'm running afoul...

It doesn't seem very efficient to do this for each link if
it could be done once per page.

sub vendUrl {
    my($path, $arguments, $r) = @_;

# CFM
#
#    $r = $Vend::Cfg->{VendURL}
#               unless defined $r;
        $r=$CGI::script_name unless defined $r;
        $r=$Vend::Cfg->{VendURL} unless defined $r;
# /CFM
