>From http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec4.html#sec4.2:
"Multiple message-header fields with the same field-name MAY be present in a
message if and only if the entire field-value for that header field is defined
as a comma-separated list."

Content-Type is not defined as taking a comma-separated list, so it's not valid
for the server to be sending it multiple times.  The "correct" fix would be for
the web site in question to be fixed.  Tweaking WebKit's error-handling logic
in this case should also be possible to paper over the problem.
