request::accepts IE6 HTTPAccept Bug

Description

According to

http://blog.throbs.net/2006/02/09/IE6+HTTP+Bug+With+HTTPAccept+Request+Header.aspx

and

http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum21/9582.htm

IE6 sending only */* on second request, which also means that "application/xml+xhtml" is accepted too. But IE6 can't handle this.

request::accepts('xhtml') returns always true.

Maybe there have to do some rework?

workaround exists, just pass a second attribute (boolean)to disable wildcard checking

request::accepts('xhtml', TRUE)
