Oh, you are saying they are purposefully at a different location so that one can test the @base.
Ok makes sense.

Still that leaves the problem that 
http://www.w3.org/TR/turtle/tests/base1.ttl

is broken, because "@base foaf:" is not a legal construct.

@base foaf: <http://www.w3.org/2010/01/Turtle/tests/> .

And yet this file does not start with bad-XXXX as it should 
as explained by the README if it were a broken file.
