I dunno.  I just tried this in a local.css at 

   http://www.pmwiki.org/work/pmwiki-0.6.20/pmwiki.php/Main/WikiSandbox

and it appears to work just fine (Firefox 0.9).  

I looked at the installation at ecowiki.org and it didn't seem to have
the pre statement in the local.css file--I'm guessing you took it out 
since it wasn't working.
