Ok, more info.  I discovered that nautilus is indeed seeing the mime 
type.  If i right click on something and go to properties, the correct 
mime type is being displayed.
I also ran the "file types and programs" capplet in the Applications 
menu,it shows that all the mime-types are correctly associated with 
icons.  So I'm guessing that for some reason the code that displays mime 
type icons is the problem...
I'm still looking, but any ideas would be helpful.
