Good idea, thanks! I've committed this patch to trunk.

The URL for the "What Are Allocators Good For?" article has been a recurring source of problems. It moved from the C/C++ Users Journal website to the Dr Dobbs site after CUJ shut down, and the original domain changed hands, leaving old links pointing to nefarious sites. Now the URL to the copy on drdobbs.com no longer works either and I can't find a (legal) copy of the article online. The simplest solution is to remove the URL. * doc/xml/manual/allocator.xml: Remove URL for bibliography entry. * doc/html/*: Regenerate. Committed to trunk. I think I'll backport this too, so we don't keep a non-working link in the docs on release branches. commit 45a605e970ea6db474e40c02aef6b18993fea05c Author: Jonathan Wakely <jwakely@redhat.com> Date: Thu Sep 5 08:40:35 2019 +0100 Remove broken URL from libstdc++ manual The URL for the "What Are Allocators Good For?" article has been a recurring source of problems.
