+Summary: dead URL link in mono source code (with fix)
+
+Description of Problem:
+In mono 0.24, the file mono/io-layer/atomic.h says:
+
+ * See
+ *
+http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnmag00/html/win320700.asp?frame=true
+ * for the reasons for using cmpxchg and a loop here.
+ *
+ * That url is no longer valid, but it's still in the google cache at the
+ * moment:
+http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:http://msdn.microsoft.com/librar
+y/en-us/dnmag00/html/win320700.asp?frame=true
+
+Neither URL currently works.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Look at the source code.
+2. Try to follow the URL's.
+
+Additional Information:
+
+A currently valid (May 28 2003) URL is:
