Bug description:svn.php.net style sheets useless for viewing source code

Description:
------------
I was just looking in to see the source of a PEAR module hosted on
svn.php.net,
to see how it was implemented:

http://svn.php.net/viewvc/pear/packages/Var_Dump/trunk/Var_Dump.php?revision=237750&view=markup

To my horror, I noticed that:

1. The source code is horribly garish in terms of colouring, here, no
colour at all would be preferred to the intermittent low-contrast purple
banding.

2. The source code lacks CSS bits to preserve indentation, further
decreasing legibility.

The CSS Part is easy enough to resolve: 


white-space: pre-wrap

And it would be good to have the lines in monospaced text:

font-family: monospaced

And it should be safe to stick that in `div#vc_file > table` 's style
rule.


An alternative would be simply un-blocking the ability to view source
files raw in VC

For instance, gentoo's install of VC allows you to view source, by
clicking a "Download" on each source file, giving 

http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/dev-perl/Algorithm-C3/Algorithm-C3-0.80.0.ebuild?revision=1.1

Which is quite legible.

However .... svn.php.net seems to have explicitly blocked this function
for some reason:

http://svn.php.net/viewvc/pear/packages/Var_Dump/trunk/Var_Dump.php?revision=237750
