This is not a mozilla problem. The server is detecting which browser is being used, and serving different content accordingly. You see an XML file in Mozilla/Firefox, because the server is sending an XML. If you use IE6, the server sends you an HTML page. -> Tech Evangelism

Oddly enough, this works in Camino-trunk, but not in Firefox 2. Very strange, probably the only time I've ever seen that happen (it's usually the reverse).
I guess I should confirm this, then :)
