#3545: Content-Type header case sensitive

-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
Wordpress 2.0.6 (and below) use of the Content-Type header is
inconsistent. In most places it sends "Content-Type" but in some,
particularly the RSS templates, it sends "Content-type" (note the
lowercase 't')
RFC2616 implies that this header is case sensitive.
I came across this whilst using the WP-Cache plugin. It is strict about
the header case and ignores the RSS feed content types, overriding it with
it's own default of html/text. So WP-Cached RSS feeds end up with the
wrong content-type, breaking some feed readers.
