I don't think this is related to Safari application in any way. I can reproduce this with Safari 5.0 and ToT WeKit just as well.

This seems to be another example of incompatible change in HTML5, which no longer treats "<tag<tag>" the way HTML4 did (according to a W3C validator warning message). But whatever the specs say, this is definitely an incompatible change for WebKit.

The offending snippet is:

Company<br /><br                        </div>
