This is puzzling me how that could happen. I just ran a test build and
it does install there.
Note that the binary name is ext_time_quota_acl withan "_acl" part on
the end. If you are searching for the exact binary name that will matter.

If you configure Squid with the path to a binary which does not exist
(as in #1 above) Squid will abort on startup with a message talking
about missing helper program.
So this looks like the helpers *are* being found whereever they are but
cannot run for some reason.

I would suspect the ext_time_quote.db is missing, or has permissions
problems accessing its database.
