The real culprit here is the damnabe "mime magic" plugin that Apache installs by default. Without this plugin, any file with an extension that Apache doesn't recognized gets passed to the browser as binary-bin. At worst case, that means the browser will at least let you download/save the file (without requiring a right-click save link as...) I've seen that mime magic cause *all* kinds of mischief by mis-identifying files as text.
