Comment (by chirael):

 While I still consider this a bug, a workaround which seems to work for me
 is to use styles to select the br element and then set its display to
 none:

 {{{
 <li class="nobr"><label for="sellby">How soon do you need to
 sell?</label><select id="sellby"
 }}}

 and then in the theme's style.css:

 {{{
 li.nobr br { display: none; }
 }}}

 Just wanted to post this hack in case anyone else is vexed by this WP
 behavior; credit to [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/unwanted-line-
 break-inserted-after-a-label-tag this page] for the idea.
