Hm, I haven't looked at the patchset yet - I assume its in the 53 meg download? Much like any other submission, it might need some tidying up to be more suitable; I'm reasonably surprised they've not approached anyone about trying to include this work into the mainline Squid tree (to make their lives easier!) in the past.
