Thanks a lot! Actually these two pieces of trivia and 
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/sections.html#mergin filled in all the blanks. 
I've added a conditional override in the httpd-deflate.conf:

SetEnvIf override-gzip-in-httpd-deflate-conf 1 no-gzip dont-vary

And used that in my .htaccess file:

SetEnvIf Request_URI download_file\.php$ no-gzip dont-vary 
override-gzip-in-httpd-deflate-conf

Not an ideal solution, since it might not survive a site migration but at least 
the fix is kinda explicit...
