Taking a look while here at FOSDEM...libsvn_client set the mime-type as
"application/xml":

% svn diff index.shtml
Index: index.shtml
===================================================================
Cannot display: file marked as a binary type.
svn:mime-type = application/xml
% svn pg svn:mime-type index.shtml
application/xml
% file --mime-type index.shtml
index.shtml: application/xml
% file -v
file-5.11
magic file from /opt/local/share/misc/magic

I thought we treated application/xml as text at one time?  -- justin
