My experience: roughly 30% of boots, squid starts and mid-startup it dies without logging any errors to its own files.
At least one occurance, /var/log/messages reports "kernel: [ 42.178904] init: squid3 main process (1274) killed by HUP signal"
I've seen this "premature death" at various stages in the startup e.g. a quick scan of cache.log shows it being killed after:
Set Current Directory to /var/spool/squid3
Adding nameserver 192.168.12.1 from /etc/resolv.conf
My guess without much testing: there is some kind of race
condition/timing issue going on. Squid3 is started by upstart and at
roughly the same time /etc/resolvconf/update-libc.d/squid3 is triggered
(e.g. by bind9 startup, which was the previous logged event in
/var/log/messages) which then sends squid a HUP.
Normally a HUP to squid is harmless (reload config), but it seems to be
fatal during startup.
