Why does Apache/Dynagzip.pm call $r->content_type('text/html') in
several places? My apache module earlier in the Apache::Filter chain
sets $r->content_type to something else, but it then gets overridden by
Dynagzip.pm. If I comment out all the calls to

That's for all the info so far. To answer some questions, hardware is a
