Seems to work just fine here, but I am using the current Squid-2.5
sources (what will become 2.5.STABLE4).
I do not have a 2.5.STABLE3 Squid at hand to test with, but there has
been one important change after 2.5.STABLE3 to work around certain
broken firewalls who are trying to inspect HTTP at a packet level and
getting very confused by the fact that HTTP is not packet based but
runs ontop of TCP...
It can also be the ever present ECN issue if you run Squid on Linux.
See the Squid FAQ section on Linux for details (another case of
broken firewalls, not Linux fault, but Linux being almost the only OS
implementing ECN only Linux users notice these broken firewalls..).

Henrik
