It seems that \url{link} is sufficient, and the extra \href is spurious. 
I.e.:

\usepackage{lmodern}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin9]{inputenc}
\usepackage{textcomp}

\usepackage{url}
\usepackage[unicode,bookmarks,colorlinks]{hyperref}

\url{http://www.registrar.fas.harvard.edu/handbooks/student/chapter2/academic_perfor
mance.html}{http://www.registrar.fas.harvard.edu/handbooks/student/chapter2/academic
_performance.html}

Of course, the original question is still pending unanswered: I also would 
like how to get the extra long link beak to the next line, possibly at a 
specified place. The usual discretionary \- doesn't work in the scope of 
\url{link}.
