Ok ... the fix is as follows :
cd /tmp
wget
http://www.remotecommunications.com/apache/mod_gzip/src/1.3.19.1a/mod_gzip.c

RaQ3 ONLY(apache 1.3.6): edit the mod_gzip.c file (supplied by Chris
Burton )
==================================
pico mod_gzip.c
Add the following 3 lines to the end of the file
API_EXPORT(int) ap_regexec(const regex_t *preg, const char *string,
size_t nmatch, regmatch_t pmatch[], int eflags)
{ return regexec(preg, string, nmatch, pmatch, eflags); }

=== end of custom RAQ3 1.3.6 changes ==========

/usr/sbin/apxs -i -a -c mod_gzip.c
Then follow the instructions after this point as shown on:
http://www.uk2raq.com/raqfaq/raqfaqshow.php?faq=113


This will enable mod gzip to work on the old RAQ3 1.3.06 apache .
