We've been doing quite the same thing on our server. Our way out (maybe not
the best one; I'm waiting for the list's answers :-) is to generate the dynamic
page (step one, which you're obviously doing) and then, at the end of this phase
of the request, generate an internal redirect to the newly created page.
This way, Apache processes the dynamic/SSI page, just as if it were
requested by the user.
Maybe that's a little heavy (but it's still better than sending an external
redirect to the user's browser !)
