The problem I was having in fact is that the Mozilla programmers *do*
follow the spec, though: the HTTP header which I was (inadvertantly)
sending ruled, giving me mojibake.  That's what the spec says to do.

It would be nice if we could have a discussion based on *one* problem
instead off just trying to score points off each other.
