Apply this small patch to src/url.c:

*** url.c.orig Mon Sep 2 23:17:08 1996
--- url.c Mon Sep 2 23:10:13 1996
***************
*** 307,316 ****
--- 307,318 ----
  
  int urlCheckRequest(r)
       request_t *r;
  {
      int rc = 0;
+ if(r->method==METHOD_CONNECT)
+ return 1;
      switch (r->protocol) {
      case PROTO_HTTP:
      case PROTO_CACHEOBJ:
        rc = 1;
        break;

This patch is needed for 1.0.11 and 1.1.alpha15.
