IMO one added, one changed ;) My suggestion for Accept header:
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8

And proposition to change User-Agent header. Current is typical for
spam-bots ;) Minimal changes (which IMO should be) are

User-Agent: GrubNG 20080128 (+http://grub.org)

Optimal (typical for all other crawlers):

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; GrubNG; +http://grub.org)
