I don't remember.  I noticed it on several of the porting
pages. I printed out 4-5 of them and they all were chopped off
on the right hand side because the width of <pre></pre>
sections were wider than the page, and all of the other <p></p>
sections wrap to the same width as the widest <pre></pre>.
