This is the fault of the webserver telling firefox that the page is "text/plain".

Comment 2

[Dave Townsend [:mossop]]

[e-mail], is there any reason you moved this bug back to firefox and
removed all the changes I made?

I'm sure this was a case of mid-air collision which wasn't handled properly.
Redoing your changes.

Yea, it was from the mid-air collision as I saw your name and of some of the
changes you made.  I only CC's myself to the list and I didn't make any changes.  

I was thinking about Tech Evangelism at the same time but I found I don't have
the HTTP Header extension installed on my machine.
