I have a few code blocks inside lists in my [“Importing from phpBB3” topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/importing-from-phpbb3/30810/1). They looked fine when I posted this a few days ago. But now, after a small edit with insignificant changes, the line breaks inside the code blocks are gone.

The preview still looks fine:

The actual post however looks wrong:

Is this a regression or is there something wrong with my post?
