With chromium I get:
	This page contains the following errors:
	error on line 26 at column 6: XML declaration allowed only at the start of the document
	Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error.
First, we hit
	if ($show_ctags) {
		my %ctags;
		foreach my $p (@projects) {
			foreach my $ct (keys %{$p->{'ctags'}}) {
				$ctags{$ct} += $p->{'ctags'}->{$ct};
which produces a warning warning in error.log:
	index.cgi: Argument "Linux" isn't numeric in addition (+) at /usr/share/gitweb/index.cgi line 4819.

in error.log. Then we hit git_show_project_tagcloud, which dies in "$cloud->html_and_css($count);" with

	HTML::TagCloud..
	index.cgi: Can't take log of 0 at /usr/share/perl5/HTML/TagCloud.pm line 67.
For some reason, the result is an _embedded_ error page:
	<form method="get" action="/gitweb/" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded"> 
	<p class="projsearch">Search:
	<input type="text" name="s"  /> 
	</p> 
	</form> 
	Content-type: {a content type which shall not be named}
	 
	<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> 
 [...]
	500 - Internal Server Error
So I suspect there are two bugs here.

Ideas? Jonathan
