Instead of forking your own incompatible nginx version, I'd be tempted
to test this out:

Turn gzip on.
Always remove the Accept-Encoding header from the proxied request.
Perform the transformations on the uncompressed response.
Let nginx gzip the content on the way back to the client.

The ordering of the different modules you're using may spoil this
idea, of course, but I'd give it a go myself.

Cheers,
