I'd say it's Firefox that's broken in this case, due to its lack of
support for W3C standards.
Firefox correctly rejects XML that is not well-formed -- to render such
pages would be in flagrant violation of the standard.
Unfortunately the wiki can't currently guarantee that output for all
inputs will be well-formed, so it's not safe for us to send the
application/xhtml+xml content type.
(Hypothetically we could do an XML parsing pass on output and then send
text/html if it's not well-formed. But that's... uuuugly and probably
very slow and will get us shot. :)
