I'm running a MediaWiki 1.4.6 and I've noticed that the RSS (and atom) feed from Special:Recentchanges has become invalid.
As far as I can tell two blank lines are being inserted before the header and these seems to break any attempt to parse it using a newsreader.
I've looked at the code and I can't see anything wrong with the headers. I haven't modified the code at all.
The feed is @ http://irishgamingwiki.com/index.php?title=Special:Recentchanges&feed=rs...
and here is what a validator says about it:

Thanks for any help Mark Cunningham

I dont have the problem with cvs 1.4 and cvs HEAD. http://twenkill.dyndns.org/mediawiki-cvs/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Recentchan... http://twenkill.dyndns.org/mediawiki-1_4/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Recentchan...
It might be fixed since 1.4.6, still, double check the bottom of index.php, LocalSettings.php ...

Ah, that was it. The bottom of LocalSettings.php had several blank lines. Removed those it worked. Thanks! :)

Just a guess, but does your Localsettings.php start with any blank lines? This has caused [problems with other things besides RSS IIRC
