Bugzilla is adding information to attachment MIME types. In the attachment linked from the above page, http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6518 it is giving the MIME type: Content-Type: text/xml; name="c:\node_e~1.xml"; and thus the page is not being recognized as XML by Mozilla, making the attachment useless. Although it *probably* should (I'm not sure) be recognized as XML, it would be better if bugzilla served the MIME type exactly as given.

I just confirmed this does happen on other attachments (I tried two others, both html).

Per both the XML MIME type registration: ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments/media-types/text/xml and RFC 1521: http://info.internet.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc/files/rfc1521.txt the only legal parameter for a text/xml MIME type (or text/xml, for the first source) is charset.

OK, I've stopped putting on the "name=" stuff. (It wasn't having the desired effect, anyway; I was hoping it would help provide a default name when people tried to save an attachment to disk.)

Verified fixed by telnetting to bugzilla.mozilla.org on port 80. (For some reason, the server gives type text/html for a HEAD request, but the correct text/xml for a GET request. Is this new? I don't seem to remember it. It may be another bug.)
