Nope, it's quite standard.  The list of tags which may not be used
within <pre> is specified in the HTML 4.01 DTD as:

  <!ENTITY % pre.exclusion "IMG|OBJECT|BIG|SMALL|SUB|SUP">

The standard also notes that this list has not changed since HTML 3.2.

Where did you get that from?  Of course XHTML has <pre>.  In fact, it
pretty much has to have it because every _other_ way of marking up
preformatted text has been deprecated even before HTML3.

And it still can contain links.  Appendix B of the XHTML 1.0 standard,
which lists elements that are excluded within other elements, says:

  pre
        cannot contain the img, object, big, small, sub, or sup
        elements.
