It actually does a fair bit more than that, but no it's not yet full
HTTP/1.1. The major things missing at the moment is processing of 1xx
responses and handling of Expect headers.

It's enought of HTTP/1.1 to allow Squid to advertise itself as HTTP/1.1
in day-to-day usage for browsing, primarily for reverse proxies.
Enabling this for Internet proxying until there is support for 1xx and
Expect is a little scarier, but probably works better than 2.6 for
most..
