I had same problem, adding compression option after "File =" withing Include 
resource made it work.

Following works for me:

Fileset
{
   ......

   Include
   {
      Options
      {
          .....
      }

      File = ......

      Options
      {
         compression = gzip
      }
   }
   ......
}
