#3669: Missing close </p> tag in wpautop

 Severity:  normal    |    Keywords:  wpautop xhtml
----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
 wpautop seems to change <p><div></div></p> to <div><p></div>
 (note the lack of a closing </p> in the second).  This broke XHTML
 compliance in some text appended by a custom plugin of mine, but I'm
 guessing it would affect any div's I put in via the edit page.

 I've attached the patch, but the short version of the fix is adding
 this line below after line 66 in wp-includes/formatting.php.

 $pee = preg_replace( '|(</div[^>]*>\s*)</p>|', "</p>$1", $pee );
