Yes apache can tell them apart.  My question is why do we need uri, mines, 
and files options for excluding.  They all can be configured with different 
server domain blocks.  They are all there to make our life easer.  I have a 
global configuration for mod_gzip that works on each virtual domain server 
block.  This way I do not have to edit each server domain block on each 
server.

Thanks,
