I think the only solution is to wrap the URL, unmodified and unhyphenated, to fit. To introduce a hyphen would to change the literal URL. Hyphenation should never change the meaning of the text. A user copying the typeset URL and pasting it into the browser's address bar shouldn't have to hunt down spurious hyphens. --jkl
