 A lot of theme designers start with the files for Classic or Default
 themes when creating their theme files.

 The language_attributes() in both themes is used with the default 'html'
 value even though the documents specifically have xhtml DOCTYPEs.

 I have searched the internet in hopes of correcting this issue, but it all
 starts here. language_attributes('xhtml') should be used with xhtml
 doctypes.


 I have attached a diff file with a patch for Classic and for Default.
