Unless your users are using browsers Less then IE4 & Netscape4 & Opera 5 then this might be an issue; but I'm guessing you don't have users using technology from 1997 :). I encountered a server that didn't like x-gzip thus I now use gzip as it always works.

Thanks for pointing this out though, I used to use x-gzip but due to my experiences I can no longer recommend it.
