mod_gzip is doing what you make it do, using its
configuration rule set.

There is a very powerful configuration rule, the
"mod_gzip_item_include reqheader".
You can simply use _every_ HTTP header you like
to make to compression of mod_gzip depending on it.

This is the way to do "browser sniffing", and I
myself am using this, to exclude Netscape 4.06-4.08.
