Thank you for the report, but please note that using the bug tracker
would be better to find others affected and seek resolution. Mailing
list posts aren't tracked.

I was unable to reproduce this with squid 3.5.12-1ubuntu7.10 - neither
with fresh install nor with upgrade.

Can you see if you can find complete steps to reproduce please, and if
so then file a bug with the details?

Thanks,

Robie
