--- Comment #10 from Michael Catanzaro <mcatanzaro at gnome.org> ---
OK, that makes sense. So it's three separate problem:

 * The document http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/systemd/index.html is broken for attempting to declare a custom encoding in an XHTML document. The XHTML document is invalid.
 * The website http://www.linuxfromscratch.org is further broken since it uses HTML content type for an XHTML document with HTML content type. (It so happens that using the wrong content type is required to avoid the first problem.)
 * Finally, WebKitGTK is (arguably) ill-advised in sniffing the document contents to determine content type. It seems Safari and other browsers consider only the file extension, .html. WebKitGTK should aim to match the behavior of other browsers.
