One way is it to server XHTML as text/xml, and put <xsl:template
match="/"><xsl:copy-of select="."/></xsl:template> in an XSLT stylesheet.

Using this method, IE7 shows the fallback content next to the "missing
image" icon and also next to the rendering of an actual image.  Firefox,
OTOH, doesn't show the fallback content at all.
