New Comment:
Thanks for the suggestion. I regret to report that I can't make it
work: no number of calls to flush(), ob_end_clean(), or
ob_implicit_flush() allow the script to output non-compressed data.
So, this comment: "If you disable it in your script after it has been
started it won't be stopped." actually seems to mean "It is not
possible to disable zlib output compression or buffering within a
script." IMO this would be useful to note on the manual page for
ini_set().

This is quite logical because the output compression starts before your
script is executed. If you disable it in your script after it has been
started it won't be stopped.
You can _try_ a couple of ob_end_clean()'s (use ob_get_level() to find
out how many) to stop it.
Reopening as a documentation problem.

I have the following line in my php.ini:
zlib.output_compression = On
In experimenting with this, I attempted to disable it within a script
(mostly because I wanted to defeat the output buffering that zlib
performs). I tried several variations of this line in a script:
ini_set('zlib.output_compression', '0');
ini_set('zlib.output_compression', 0);
ini_set('zlib.output_compression', 'off');
In all cases, output is still compressed. Here is a complete script:
<?
ini_set('zlib.output_compression', '0');
echo "If compression is disabled, you should be able to read this
via 'lynx -mime_header'";
?>
You can see it here:

I get this output:
