Details

Currently, the entire content of <pre> tag is treated as a paragraph for the purposes of the bidi algorithm. Per HTML 5 (the url), though, "a newline in a pre element should separate paragraphs for the purposes of the Unicode bidirectional algorithm." Hopefully, this will fix performance problems for huge preformatted text sections with bidi characters like TBPL logs.
Do you have a testcase for this? It's supposed to have been fixed by bug 263359.
Sorry, I was looking at a really old copy of the source.
