That wouldn't necessarily work -- I don't want the entire body set to  
overflow, just the code snippet. Example:

http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20080305012955463

I wouldn't want that whole story to gain a scroll bar just due to the  
code snippet. That's why I prefer the <div> solution, so it isolates  
the longer lines.
