OK, I changed that

Currently this is running on a OS X machine but when I've learned enough
about pmwiki I plan to move it to a debian based server. Both machines are
running Apache 1.x something.

Doesn't seem to help, I added the line an tried it but with the same result.
Other text on the page that I add through pmwiki is correctly displayed.

OK, I've never played around with that part of Apache (or is this PHP
specific) so I don't know where to look.
