All this does (AFAIK) is tells Apache to send a content-type: 
image/jpeg header along with any files with the .mjpg extension. 
What you need to do is configure Mason to serve .mjpg files just 
as you configure it to serve .html or .mhtml files. Then in your 
component, call $r->content_type('image/jpeg') before sending the 
file.
