[Rails] Textilize problems with line breaks

Doing that gives me the exact same output that textilize(@body) does.

Textilize(@body) and RedCloth.new(@body, [:hard_breaks]).to_html both
give me:

Test1. Test2. Test3. Test4.

RedCloth.new(@body).to_html (without hard_breaks) gives me:

Test1. Test2. Test3.
Test4.

I''ve also tried doing a
textilize(@body.gsub("\r\n"," ")) to
force one per line break, but then it screws up things like
bulleted and numbered lists.
