Unwanted changes to in-line Javascript

[catharsis71]

Input:

<script>aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa</script>


<script>
aaaaaaaaaa
bbbbbbbbbb
cccccccccc
dddddddddd
</script>

Output:

<script>
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
</script>
<script>

aaaaaaaaaa
bbbbbbbbbb
cccccccccc
dddddddddd
</script>

Two issues here:

1. The first single-line script is being split out to three lines

2. The second longer script is getting an ugly blank line inserted at the start

I've looked through the man page but couldn't find a solution. Is there anything that can be done about this?
