Use -clean and you will get

  <body>
    <div class="t1 t2">
      test
    </div>
  </body>

In basically any recent version. Tidy 04 August 2000 would give

  <body>
    <div class="t1">
      test
    </div>
  </body>

In clean.c we have

  /*
      Symptom <div><div>...</div></div>
      Action: merge the two divs

    This is useful after nested <dir>s used by Word
    for indenting have been converted to <div>s
  */

As I've said, `--merge-divs no` would disable this behavior.
