Sure looks like the DefaultType kicking in, which should not happen
with an appropriate AddType.

	Well, the user checked, did find a DefaultType text/plain in his
	configuration.  He REMOVED IT, and it still delivers these files with
	Content-Type: text/plain.

	He had a ForceType also, but that was to force text/html, and it
	was conditioned within a <FILEMATCH> stanza and clearly wasn't what
	was being triggered since we keep getting text/plain.

	The file itself is being genrated not via a CGI but some Oracle
	process (this IS an Apache configured by Oracle after all), so he's
	trying to figure out now just what might be generated by that
	procedure, which DOES seem to generate a Content-Type header.  If
	we can determine that it gets OMITTED in this case that would explain
	the type/plain from the DefaultType, perhaps, even with the DefaultType
	directive being removed.   Another possibility is the process itself
	has no idea what to assign as a Content-Type, and thus it backpedals
	and assigns text/plain because it has nothing better  to assign
	(although application/octet would be better, eh?).
