Nope, half-closed FDs are closed and released after some time of
inactivity on my machines. The only problem (still remaining since
squid-1.1) is that with a workload higher than the host can handle, I have
loads of FDs remaining in CLOSE_WAIT until I reach my FD limit (which I
set to 4096). More than 200 CW handles is a good sign to restart squid
(still found no other solution).
