Uhm, looking again into auto/modules I think I was wrong, and
modifying the HTTP_POSTPONE_FILTER_MODULE variable won't work
(added module config scripts are executed later on), you should
modify HTTP_FILTER_MODULES variable instead, and put your module
into a proper position.

Note that the "config" file of a module is just a shell script,
and you are free to do more or less anything there.
