IIRC, and my memory is a bit fuzzy on this point, it's a bug in the
validator when an XHTML file is served as one of the XML MIME types instead
of as text/html. This means if you call the file foo.html it validates; but
if you call it foo.xhtml or foo.xml it won't. I posted a fix for this a
while back IIRC.
