NO squid does NOT store partial objects at all, NOT even in squid-3.0.
And, there is no open development done on this side.

But i have developed a patch for squid-2.5-STABLE2 which does
following things:
--- Caches partial objects
--- Merges all partial objects into one (if whole object has arrived.)

But still it has lots of bugs and so cannot make it public, they will HIT me
