Well, change from text/html to (sometimes) application/xhtml+xml was
made in commit f6801d669 by Alp Toker with the following explanation:
"The 'text/html' media type [RFC2854] is primarily for HTML, not for
XHTML. In general, this media type is NOT suitable for XHTML."
This patch makes gitweb use content negotiation to conservatively send
pages as Content-Type 'application/xhtml+xml' when the user agent
explicitly claims to support it.
By "conservatively" it means that it uses 'application/xhtml+xml' only when
client explicitly claims that it accepts its, and it is not due to for
example */* accept globbing.
So if lynx isn't working, it is its damn fault...
