I've managed to reword the sentence so it renders cleanly. This doesn't solve 
the overall problem of fixing occasional rendering errors like this, but I 
guess I'll just fix them using this strategy, unless someone has a better way.

This likely requires tweaking of the line break / wrap rules in 
https://github.com/gradle/gradle/blob/master/subprojects/docs/src/docs/css/print.css<https://github.com/gradle/gradle/blob/master/subprojects/docs/src/docs/css/print.css#L1-0>

No idea on the specifics though.
Any clues would be appreciated.  I’ve looked at this file, and I don’t see 
anything obvious.
