Dived into the code and found the problem:
if the level var is set in $TYPO3_CONF_VARS the type is String (!)
So to get the compression working you have to fix index.php (line 500) 
in root.

i.e.
// *************
// Compressions
// *************
if ($TYPO3_CONF_VARS["FE"]["compressionLevel"])	{
	new gzip_encode($TYPO3_CONF_VARS["FE"]["compressionLevel"], false, 
$GLOBALS["TYPO3_CONF_VARS"]["FE"]["compressionDebugInfo"]);
}

and debug:
// *************
// Compressions
// *************
if ($TYPO3_CONF_VARS["FE"]["compressionLevel"])	{
/* add this line to convert to Boolean if true
debug Peter Russ 06.09.2003 beginn */ 
$complevel=($TYPO3_CONF_VARS["FE"]["compressionLevel"]=='true')?true:$TYPO3_CONF_VARS["FE"]["compressionLevel"];
/* debug end*/
	new gzip_encode($complevel, false, 
$GLOBALS["TYPO3_CONF_VARS"]["FE"]["compressionDebugInfo"]);
}


Gruss. Peter Russ.
