------- Additional Comments From fielding@apache.org  2007-05-01 03:40 -------
mod_mime_magic uses the external file magic mechanism, which is
not reliable for unstructured files.  There is no way for us to
"fix" such a mechanism.

The proper workaround is to define the type directly, using the
configuration mechanism.  Something like (untested)

<Files "README">
   ForceType text/plain
</Files>
<Files "HEADER">
   ForceType text/plain
</Files>
