Code Review Request: 7017962: Obsolete link is used in URL class level spec

[Kurchi Hazra]

Apologies, but I have a new suggestion. It is safer to redirect to an 
archived
version of the document that we want to link to.

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~khazra/7017962/webrev.01/src/share/classes/java/net/URL.java.sdiff.html

Thanks to Mike for pointing this out.
