I would say that if a URL is in the web archive, then no patch is needed.

true especially if it's really ancient, but with a series I sent out a few weeks ago archive.org was introduced due to people still looking at the old documentation. Up to you guys if you want to remove archive.org from this..

I'll go through the whole thing and see if I can figure a good fix for the
archive.org stuff

Just checked, and you can modify the links like so:

- http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://ftp.digital.com/pub/DEC/axppci/ref_interrupts.txt
+ http://web.archive.org/web/%2A/http://ftp.digital.com/pub/DEC/axppci/ref_interrupts.txt

So, change * to %2A (it's ASCII code in hex).

I guess that's the least clunky fix.
