I have this simple .htaccess in a hosted website. Static content is
compressed, but content coming from FastCGI (that's a Rails
application) is not. Dynamic content has the right MIME type and
everything, see
$ wget -S --header="Accept-Encoding: gzip" http://www.hashref.com/
--11:27:25-- http://www.hashref.com/
=> `index.html'
Resolving www.hashref.com... 208.97.178.117

Should that configuration work?
