I tried viewing your files using Mozilla 1.5 under Windows XP.  Some 
results:

HTML:  The math appears OK, but links to other pages within the text do 
not work.

XHTML+MathML:  As soon as I click the "XHTML + MATHML" link,  I see at 
http://www.luttrell.org.uk/construction/paper/ble%20(XHTML%20+%20MathML).xml
the error:

Error loading stylesheet: An XSLT stylesheet does not have an XML 
mimetype:http://www.luttrell.org.uk/construction/paper/HTMLFiles/pmathml.xsl.
