Judging by the cec8394b5ccd3 this was added for MSVC 2013 support, and commit
8fd9bb1d9654c59d bumped the minimum requirement to MSVC 2019, so I wonder if
this at all relevant anymore?

The link does indeed not work anymore, and archive.org hasn't indexed it, so I
guess a better comment at this point would be something like the below to
retain the information for anyone with archeological ambitions.

- * long lived bug in the Microsoft compilers.
- * See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/120968/en-us for details
+ * long lived bug in the Microsoft compilers (KB120968).
