I hate to say this, but his resume sucks. Generalize, but don't generalize your resume.
Listen, if you can code in Haskell, Lisp, ML, and spit out binary code by hammering it via Hex, no one cares if all they want is a PHP or Ruby programmer.
Specialize your resume, if they want PHP, explain what you have done with PHP. If they want C/C++, highlight your C/C++ experiences, if they want a sysadmin, they don't care about your coding skills. You can show those off in the interview, and let them know you have other skills.
What this means is you need to have about 5-6 different resumes targeting the jobs you are going for.
Drop ancient and basic things out of your resume too, I saw MSDOS, HTML, CSS, GIMP, HTTP, XML, etc in his resume.
He has the technical skills, but not the marketing skills. He is in the business of selling himself, all those skills oversells himself and makes many companies afraid that he would want a ridiculously high salary and that they can't afford him.
