Layer type should be set to RASTER but if you set it to POINT then
MapServer will change it back to RASTER internally.  I was unable to
reproduce the problem, there must be something missing at the map
level.  Also note that and the wms_srs metadata value should be
"EPSG:4326" in uppercase but that didn't seem to have an impact in this
case.

I attached below a mapfile that does work for me.  You should be able to
isolate the problem if you compare it with yours.
