Details: This chance successfully enables gzip compression for  
javascript in the version of tomcat packaged by the installer.   
Tested using the OS-X installer built by 'ant dist-dev'

Tests: 'ant dist-dev', run the installer, startup the server, and  
from bash type: $ curl -I -H "Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate" "http://

If gzip is working, you will see the 'Content-Encoding: gzip'  
header.  Also tested lzpix dhtml in safari, ie 6, firefox 1.5.0.8 mac  
and windows.
