I just ran svn update, purged the cache and reviewed the page, and there was no change. The HTML I'm getting is:
<p><a href="/w/index.php?title=Foo&action=edit" class="new" title="Foo"><pre>Magic link!</pre></a> </p>
That's illegal HTML, since <pre> is a block-level element and <a> is inline-level. On Wikimedia servers, Tidy is fixing it. Probably browsers will make a best-effort interpretation of the invalid text.
(Frankly, block-level links seem like they would really be useful to me. I wish CSS had display: figure-out-from-context; and HTML got rid of the distinction between block and inline on its level. But probably there's some reason that wouldn't work.)
