New submission from Lorenzo M. Catucci <lore...@sancho.ccd.uniroma2.it>:
Please find enclosed a small patch that helps coping with xml submissions
with an explicit charset defined.
While at it, I corrected the handling of type and subtype, which, according to
RFC 2045, must be matched case-insensitively.
For better long-term documentation, I added two test-cases, instead of
shoe-horning in test_classify_xmlpost the test for both fixes.
As usual... The fix is really small, but if needed, I waive any copyright etc.
