Confirmed. If you go to Admin > Skins > Header, and add this line

I don't think this is the right solution for Fossil out of the box,
though, for a bunch of reasons:
1. You'd have to add it redundantly to all the <head> tags in
src/style.c, not just to zDefaultHeader.
2. Fixing it here won't help any Fossil installation where they have
already customized the page header.
3. It appears that Fossil's SCGI and HTTP server features are built on
top of its CGI feature, so one fix applies to all three use cases.
Therefore, I offer this trivial patch, which I hope does not require a
signed contributor agreement:

I tested it against IE11 on Windows 8.1 in "fossil server" mode only.
It does indeed fix both problems I noticed with IE in "compatibility
view" mode. (Broken CSS handling for the logo, as well as the WYSIWYG
editor problem.)
You still get HTML1202 warnings in the developer console (F12), but this
appears to be bogus:

I assume it also works in CGI and SCGI modes, but I did not test this.
