Sorry, but it's really needed.  If/when the page history contains
any floating images, the clear:both; is needed to allow the history
boxes to properly contain the floating images, or at least not
produce a display that is completely unreadable.

To see what can happen when the "clear:both;" is missing, take a look
at http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Test/FloatDiff .

Unfortunately CSS doesn't provide a good way to be able to specify
which floating things to skip (or at least I haven't found one).
