Quite so.  Was, I believe, also in the previous LC draft.  :-(  Both versions
were added to the source at the same time and in response to the same bug; I
assume one was meant to be removed and its removal got backburnered and then
overlooked.

Since the one-line version is quite long and thus quite useless on most
browsers, and since the introductory text mentions that whitespace (which
includes line breaks) is meant to be removed before the RE is used, I assume
the one-line version should be removed and the other remain.

WG should approve this solution (or reject it--I hope not).
