Actually, as far as I know there's no Apache::Gzip.  But that's a lie
too - I've been harboring a new Apache::Gzip that seems to work, and
plays well with Apache::Filter too.  As if you couldn't guess that based
on my other modules. =)

I think I'll have a version of Apache::Gzip up on CPAN within a couple
of days.  Eager-worts can look at
http://mathforum.com/~ken/modules/Apache-Gzip/ in the meantime.
