 * mod_mime_magic: For compressed content the module sets the
   content encoding header and also tries to determine the
   uncompressed content type by using an external gzip.
   Several bugs break this functionality:
   - Starting gzip doesn't work because an invalid working
     directory is used and neither the full path name for gzip
     nor the PATH variable is used.
   - When gzip works, but cannot detect the content type, then
     content encoding is also not set.
   - Too few bytes are uncompressed so often the content type
     can not be determined.
   Patches in trunk (separated to make review easier):
     http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=756671&view=rev (working dir)
     http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=756675&view=rev (use PATH)
     http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=756678&view=rev (content encoding)
     http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=756683&view=rev (read more bytes)
   Those patches apply to 2.2.x as well.
