I took a quick look, and it looked fine - but I didn't actually look
at anything containing a code sample.

It might also be depending on the reader. I did specifically look at
things like our examples around setting up archive scripts, and they
linebreak properly instead of running off the page horizontally...

Do you have a specific example that looked bad for you, so I can
compare it on my reader?
