The MIME type to use doesn't depend on the DOCTYPE.  It depends on whether the
document is to be treated as HTML or XHTML.

Technically, if you're using XHTML 1.0, then you should use an XML MIME type. 
Though, if you use text/html, like most people do, then the document will be
treated as HTML.

This is not a bug in the spec, resolving invalid.
