The reason is that Squid is not an HTTP/1.1 compliant agent.

It is possible by writing new code that will make Squid HTTP/1.1
compliant. Simply setting the Squid request version to HTTP/1.1 is
likely to break things because Squid will not be able to handle some
HTTP/1.1 responses.

For details on what needs to be implemented, please see
