If there's a media-type and an associated .rnc extension, then Apache
config files will tend to associate .rnc with application/relax-ng-compact
or whatever it is. Browsers will then pick up that media type, assume
they can't read the file, and punt to saving it. This is annoying.
We had to stop using READ.ME instead of README because servers were
assuming it was troff -me text and browsers were not displaying it.
