First steps can already be taken:

1) bundle cfgman with releases.
   ** someone very familiar with the snapshot and release scripts needs
to do that. I tried it and got it wrong here before xmas.

2) drop cfgman comments from squid.conf.default
   ** any of us could do that *after* the above to by removing the
comment print from get_conf() in cf_gen.cc

That alone drops squid.conf to around 4KB IIRC.

There are serious security advisories out on all earlier releases.
