On a number of Web sites, check-link returns with an HTTP error 406,
even with correct Accept header settings, and even when wget and links
can access the site without a problem.
Through trial and error, I found that on at least one site, the culprit
is the User-Agent header. Adding the line
$request->header('User-Agent', 'W3C-linkcheck');
before line 1307 solves this issue. Normally, the user agent is
W3C-checklink/4.5 [4.154] libwww-perl/5.805
