Comment(by hailin):

 trunk revision 11073

 To reproduce it, construct categories structure so that the second page
 starts in a subtree, and the code is supposed to print the parents. (only
 after you apply patch #9661 to fix the subtree bug)

 Those parents have description filed set to <br /> although they were
 empty before
 the call $qe_data = get_category_to_edit($category->term_id).

 So get_category_to_edit() modified the description filed unwittingly.

 The expected behavior is not to alter the empty description field.
