We carry some mimetype patches in debian and ubuntu. Since both (ffox
in ubuntu and iceweasel in debian) render properly, i suspect it has
to do something with a patch we have. However gecko itself does not
recognize it as i see the rendering problem in epiphany, so i am not
sure. Anyway, please try the patch attached.

Here some trolling: Please don't use any MS site. They don't deserve
any visitors :) as they are just ignorant.
