You can try the Squid-2 snapshots which include the below patch.

Here is what I have done:
1. My current install is via yum (rpm).
2. I have configured with the same options returned from a '#squid -v'
and done a 'make'
3. I have backup my current squid.conf
Here is the question:
Do I do a 'make install,' then replace the new 'squid.conf' with my
original, and start squid back up? (This is a production box and I
really don't want to bust it.)
Thanks,
Chris
If it was me I would do a cp on my current squid directory, then when
installing do a ./configure --someother directory. For example: if
squid is installed in /var/squid you could install the new version in
/usr/local/squid. Doing a ./configure --help will give you the exact
options. Then after installing you can either edit the new squid.conf
to suit, stop your old squid and start new squid with a ./squid -z to
build the cache directorys and then do a ./squid. If everything goes
south, then you can go back to your old version and figure out why the
new one didnt work.
