 As noted by dd32, there's a reason for them to be there: #14140.

 I wrote a couple of simple plugins to resolve this issue for some users on
 the support forums without hacking the core:

 * This one removes the brackets from all password retrieval messages:
 [[BR]]
  http://pastebin.com/ni7rs384
 * This one does that only for a specific service that is known to
 misinterpret the brackets: [[BR]]
  http://pastebin.com/1Et2yb4b

 Replying to [comment:1 dd32]:
 > The only times I've seen this broken, is when using a plugin which adds
 HTML emails to !WordPress, which causes the < and > to be interpreted as a
 HTML element.
