Page 12 (Update-12) of the Update section for the "Microsoft C
Optimizing Compiler User's Guide and Language Reference" manual shows
an incorrect example of the comment pragma.

The second parameter of the pragma is a string literal and should be
enclosed in double quotation marks. The example should look like the
following:

   #pragma comment(lib, "mylibry")

Note: If the quotation marks are missing, the compiler will issue
error C4079.
