[Mapserver-dev] WMS VERSION=1.0.0 and Format in Capabilities

Folks,

If I issue a VERSION=1.0.0 GetCapabilities against my MapServer recently
built from CVS, I get a capabilities document which includes:

<Capability>
   <Request>
     <Map>
       <Format>&lt;GIF /&gt;&lt;PNG /&gt;&lt;JPEG /&gt;&lt;WBMP /&gt;</Format>
       <DCPType>

         <HTTP>
           <Get onlineResource="http://localhost:9001/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/u/www/drg_map/demo.map&amp;" />
           <Post onlineResource="http://localhost:9001/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/u/www/drg_map/demo.map&amp;" />
         </HTTP>
       </DCPType>
     </Map>

This is causing the WMS support in JUMP to crap out and I suspect that the
list of formats is being XML escaped when it should not be.  That is, I think
it should look like:

   <Format><GIF/><PNG/><JPEG/><WMBP/></Format>

Can anyone confirm this?  Should I fix it?  Submit to bugzilla?

Best regards,
--
