Squid will automatically detect the loops if they should occur and break
them.

If you are worried then use cache_peer_access to deny forwarding when
the request came from the other.

So in squid.conf for rainbow add

acl peers src jumbo
cache_peer_access jumbo deny peers

If more than one sibling, add them to the acl. One ACL rather than one
per peer is used to also prevent multi-hop loops.
