update_html overwrites content_type inappropriately, breaks REST::Utils

[spazm]

[email protected] reported on Nov 29, 2011

1. try to build REST::Utils using yesterday's (11/28/2011) versions from CPAN, tests fail.
2. the failing tests are expecting a content_type of application/xhtml+xml but are getting text/html
3. It looks like the recent change to WWW::Mechanize::is_html so that it now is true for application/xhtml+xml means that WWW::Mechanize::update_html needs to be more careful when it sets $self->{ct}, always forcing it to text/html does not seem like the right thing.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Perl 5.14.2, CPAN mirror from morning of 11/28.  Suse Linux.
