Louis-David and I figured out off-line that HTML::Mason did not fully
support the Apache::Filter model.  The following patch gives partial
support. Line numbers in the patch may not match exactly, since this is
against the latest cvs version.  Might want to apply it by hand, it's at
the beginning of the handle_request() method.

CVS log for this patch is:

Added a bit of code that improves compatibility with Apache::Filter.
Mason can now be used as a "pre-filter", i.e. configurations like the
following will work:

  PerlHandler HTML::Mason Apache::Compress

The following will still not work, however:

  PerlHandler Blah::GenerateComponentCode HTML::Mason

Full compliance with Apache::Filter is expected in a future release.
