That page contains a table with "Thursday <br>night" (obviously this text varies
from day to day, but this should still work) in a cell.  When I make the text
large enough so that the word "Thursday" takes up all of the horizontal space
available, there is an extra vertical space introduced between "Thursday" and
"night".

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load that page
2. Hit Cntl++ a few times, until this is exibited.

Actual Results:  
The "Thursday night" cell was displayed as:
"Thursday

night"

Expected Results:  
It should not have introduced any extra vertical spacing for a line-wrap point
that already contained a <br>.  Should have looked like this:
"Thursday
night"

Attached file Example of incorrect text wrapping (obsolete) —
I've added an attachment which exhibits the problem more consistently.  The
referenced URL changes from day to day and doesn't always exhibit the bug.
worksforme with linux trunk build 20021020.
I tried it (my attachment) again with "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0;
en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021021", and it still doesn't work.  Maybe it's just
something with the windows build?
When I view this attachment using "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0;
en-US; rv:1.2b) Gecko/20021021", and every previous version that I've tried,
then the first table has more vertical space between "Thursday" and "night"
than table2 has.
