Can Squid3 "spoof" the IP when it connects to the parent cache? This would
work in practice, because the network is laid out for such, that all packets
have to pass the intermediate squid.

There is two ways of doing this:

a) Linux TPROXY, with support in the application. To my knowledge there is no TPROXY patch to Squid-3.

b) Use of a large number of "private" addresses in tcp_outgoing_address, NAT:ed to the clients real IPs before the requests reach the parent.
