Header and namespace wise everything is correct.
But you need this header:
   "Content-Type: application/xhtml+xml"
instead of
   "Content-Type: text/html"
which phpwiki or php sends automatically.

Your server even sends it as text/plain:

$ GET -esSUd http://cgi.cse.unsw.edu.au/~malcolmr/blart.xhtml
GET http://cgi.cse.unsw.edu.au/~malcolmr/blart.xhtml
User-Agent: lwp-request/2.06

GET http://cgi.cse.unsw.edu.au/~malcolmr/blart.xhtml --> 200 OK

.....

I'll see what I can do. We need to override the Content-Type for pdf and 
svg also.
