It really wasn't hard:

* break out parseConfigFile() into two parts, one that parsed a file, one
  that did the extra stuff (set defaults, call parseOneConfigFile(squid.conf);
  check error counts, finalise the cnfig.)
* parseOneConfigFile() does the line/config parsing, and handles calling itself
  for files referenced via "include".
* there's a pair of globals used for config file and line numbers - shows up in
  acl.c mainly - so make sure you save and restore these each pass through
  parseOneConfigFile().

(Wow, I finally had a chance to write recursive code in Squid..)
