it's not you that getpwnam failed to find, it's "nobody" which by default
isn't in /etc/passwd. On Linux anyway squid changes to user nobody the
last I checked. Unfortunately squid for cygwin doesn't have any of the 
docs bundled with it yet, but I'll bet this will show up in it's install
directions. ;)

in the mean time you can create a line like this (I've not tested this):

nobody:x:99:99:Nobody:/:
