Description
wordpress 2.1 and the latest svn 2.2 adds automatically <p> and </p> tags inside <code> blocks. Sometimes it forgets to add <p> and leaves just </p>'s in the source and that breaks XHTML validation. It should leave <pre> and <code> tag blocks alone.

My bad... you should use <code> inside <pre>, as <code> doesn't imply that the text is pre-formatted.
