My conjecture is that SSL has nothing to do with your problem. To prove this conjecture, I asked you to switch off SSL in the SSL VH and then show that compression *still* works in that VH, even with SSL off. If you can demonstrate this, then you can forget about SSL and concentrate on fixing the mod_gzip config problem...
