The defer value is printed out in the FATAL statement, the about value was
(FD) 23. There appears to be no consistency in that value and has been
anything from 13 to 247.

I have done a make clean, but I have never enabled delay-pools before. My
squid is complied with: Squid Cache: Version 2.5.STABLE1

configure options: --prefix=/usr --exec_prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/sbin
--datadir=/usr/sbin --libexecdir=/usr/sbin --localstatedir=/var
--sysconfdir=/etc/squid --enable-snmp --enable-removal-policies=heap,lru
--enable-storeio=ufs,null --disable-wccp --disable-ident-lookups
--enable-cachemgr-hostname=myprivatehost.com

Thanks again,
