This link does not appear broken to me.

Hmmm, you are right. The link checker was complaining about the "#support" fragment rather than the page itself, but I see that the anchor is there in the HTML document source. Perhaps this is a bug in the link checker (it's the W3C checklink program).


Anyway, I've checked in the attached patch to revert that part of the change and restore the pointer. Sorry for the noise. :-(
