icarus: bad 404 content type for cgi

Something I just noticed:

Compare when viewcvs.cgi is used instead of viewcvs:

Trying 208.185.179.13...

Escape character is '^]'.

So, it appears that mod_negotation is doing something funny with the 
content-type.

Any mod_negotiation folks willing to take a guess as to what's going on? 
If no one else takes a peek in the next few days, I'll try to dig down and 
see what's going on.  -- justin
