Committed.

Essentially, we used AddOutputFilter includes >html<, which broke mime.
It's done this forever, but it wasn't common ... how often did you set the
Encoding, Charset, Language or Handler on 'html'?  If you did - you broke
(unless you added a _corresponding_ AddType text/html >html<.

We just skipped the mime.types file altogether since the .html record was
found in the extension info within the /serverroot/error/ directory block,
having set AddOutputFilter.  This would have been reported frequently with 
these two new filtering directives.
