Description:
------------
PHP 5.4.10
Windows XPx32 SP3
Apache/2.2.22 VC9

Don't work ob_gzhandler in ob_start('ob_gzhandler');
I don't receive header=Content-Encoding: gzip (realy don't zip)
when I specify header=Content-Length:

On Ubuntu 12.04x64 (Apache/2.2.22 PHP 5.4.9) - all ok!
On Windows XPx32 (Apache/2.2.22 VC9 PHP 5.3) - all ok!

Test script:
---------------
<?php
function fnecho($a){
ob_start('ob_gzhandler');

header("Content-Length: ".strlen($a));//to was without chunks

echo $a;
ob_end_flush();
}

fnecho("Anything... Tra-tata... Anything... Tra-tata... Anything... Tra-tata... Anything... Tra-tata... Anything... Tra-tata... Anything... Tra-tata... Anything... Tra-tata... Anything... Tra-tata... Anything... Tra-tata... Anything... Tra-tata... Anything... Tra-tata... Anything... Tra-tata...");
?>

Expected result:
----------------
header=Content-Encoding: gzip

Actual result:
--------------
Nothing = no zip.

You shouldn't send the content-length header. Just comment it out in your snippet and you'll get 

$ curl -v --compress http://localhost:8080/bug63836.php

And, that's definitely wrong setting the content-length to the length of the uncompressed data.
