I just tried again (using wget in order to see the returned MIME type) 
with the latest mapserv from CVS and for VERSION=1.1.0 I get 
application/vnd.ogc.wms_xml.

Is it possible that you are getting a service exception from your server 
(application/vnd.ogc.se_xml)?

I'd suggest that you try using a tool such as wget that will report the 
MIME type of the response.
