Quoting from
Linkname: HTML markup handling changes to Lynx2-6 to create Lynx2-7

CHANGES:
BR
* Added a COLLAPSE_BR_TAGS compilation and configuration symbol for
determinining whether Lynx collapses serial BR tags. Note that the
valid way to create extra blank lines in HTML is with PRE blocks
that contain only newlines. - FM (1996-12-14)
