lynx-dev Possible bug report - content type

Subject: lynx-dev Possible bug report - content type

I have found either a bug in lynx or a potential for improving error
recovery. I tried to go to "http://sourceforge.jp/projects/lha/";, but
lynx won't display the page (offers to download instead), since the
content type shows as "text/html; charset=euc-jp", apparently not
recognizing this as a variant on "text/html". The site has this line:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=euc-jp">

Is this an error in html by the site, or a problem with the
interpretation by lynx? I see the same action by 2.8.4rel.1 and
2.8.5rel.1, so this is not a new problem.
