[dev] Problem with compression and bufferOutput call?

[Chuck Hagenbuch]

Quoting Chris <chris at jeks.net>:

Nope.

> I took a look at bufferOutput and it uses ob_start() / ob_end_clean()

No.

Because the functions we use this for either involve including templates, or
calling PHP functions which print their output instead of returning it.
