Since this is a new feature (not a bug fix) it cannot go to 4.0 and 4.1 
anyway... I though about using ob_gzhandler because (1) it is faster to 
use native implementation and (2) it is less code inside core. But there 
will be issues: (1) we cannot count compression statistics (2) we have 
to carefully review all cases where ob_* functions are used. But these 
are not big issues...
