I'm not sure what happened, but during one of the upgrades of the apache package gzipped files no longer were sent with the correct "Content-Type" anymore.
My understanding is that (for instance) if you get "NEWS.gz" that it will be sent back with a "Content-Type:" of "text/plain" and a "Content-Encoding:" of "x-gzip". Instead it seems that the content type is sent as "application/x-gzip". See the example below. Anyone know what I have to do to get apache to send back the correct Content-Type again?
