Supposing we have:
    /**
     * <pre>
     * Result: {@value pkg1.Class1#TEST_8_PASSES}
     * Result: {@value pkg2.Class3#TEST_13_PASSES}
     * </pre>
     */
    public int field;

The first sentence tags array contains the contents of <pre> along
with the Html attribute.
This is even worse with this case:
 * <pre>
 * This is a sentence.
 * This is another sentence.
 * </pre>
Where the first sentence tags contains only
<pre> This is another sentence.
Causing malformed tags.

Therefore the "<" must be regarded as a break.
