It seems this breaks browsing to text files via Firefox.
E.g. browse to http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/CHANGES
You see a 'save as' box now, where you used to be able to see the file.
(Browsing to ^/trunk/COMMITTERS works as expected, because this file has an
explicit mime type)
It still works correctly in Internet Explorer, that (by default) guesses a
content type by looking at the content for these generic mime types.
