While it's arguable that (:linebreaks:) should be limited to the
page it is in, in general we've always had it that directives on 
the main page can also affect things that appear in sidebar and 
other pages.  

At the moment the "fix" is to put (:nolinebreaks:) at the 
beginning of the SideBar page, which guarantees that it won't
be processed with linebreaks.

It looks to me as though the markup that is creating the <legend>/<label>
tags are perhaps also generating extra newlines or <br /> tags?
