Description:
------------
The manual pages for echo and print both refer to an external web page

for discussion of the differences between them.  This page seems to
have 
been hijacked by a spammer and is being filled with irrelevant links;
no 
useful content is still on the page.

Reproduce code:
---------------
---
From manual page: function.echo#Notes
---


Expected result:
----------------
Click on the link and find useful information about the difference 
between these functions.

Actual result:
--------------
Click on the link and get some slimy SEO guy trying to squeeze some 
Google juice out of PHP.net's pagerank.
