Keeping in mind that it is defined by the DOM standards,
http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-3-Core/core.html#Node3-textContent

textContent does not involve interpreting the meaning of elements. It is strictly just the text
content of nodes, and <br>s have no content.

$domd->loadHTML(preg_replace('/<br\\s*?\/??>/i', PHP_EOL, $html));

seems to work

Description:
------------
DOMNode->textContent created with DOMDocument->loadHTML completely ignores <br>
newlines.

i guess Bug #32581
could be related, but this is for PHP5/7, that's for PHP4

Test script:
---------------
<?php
$domd=new DOMDocument();
$domd->loadHTML("<pre>line1<br/>line2\nline3</pre>");
var_dump($domd->textContent);

Expected result:
----------------
string(17) "line1
line2
line3" //<<expected result when newlines are 1 byte long

Actual result:
--------------
string(16) "line1line2
line3"//<<actual result when newlines are 1 byte long
