Thanks for providing this, but when I install it and restart apache I get

wsdsis:~# /etc/init.d/apache2 start
Starting web server: apache2apache2: Syntax error on line 185 of 
/etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Syntax error on line 1 of 
/etc/apache2/mods-enabled/fastcgi.load: Cannot load 
/usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_fastcgi.so into server: 
/usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_fastcgi.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
 failed!

and I'm on a 32bit kernel (in case that's what ELFCLASS64 is referring to?)

wsdsis:~# uname -m
i686

Would using the source version solve this or is something else going on?

For now I've disabled mod_deflate and that helps, I presume if I wasn't 
using DEFLATE anywhere I'm not loosing anything here?

Anyway, thanks for the help!

Steve
