It doesn't now:

   pr0n       Also found in: Acronyms
   pr0n - pron

At least, the only connection I see is that "Acronyms" and "pron" both link
to http://encyclopedia2.thefreedictionary.com/pron. That entry says

PRON    Patriotyczny Ruch Odrodzenia Narodowego (Polish: Patriotic Movement
of National Revival Polish)
PRON    Procurement Request Order Number

which are acronyms.
