Yes, "bzip2", but if I were more confident I would keep only "x-bzip2".
Personally, I see no need for both, and if there is general agreement,
I would like to see the OR left out and only support "x-bzip2".

I won't be doing it myself (note this is only to HTFWriter in /src, and not
in WWW/Library/Implementation) because bzip2 is less of an application now
than it is a library.  The author, AFAIK, is more interested in the algorithms
being used in library form and wrapped in any number of interfaces, e.g.,
Lynx, the way zlib was done.

I am not a programmer, and only have time for quick hacks to fulfill my
own needs.  Sorry.
