HTTP/1.0 with partial support for features from HTTP/1.1. More and more
are being added and eventually Squid may become HTTP/1.1 but not yet.

Squid supports:
* Persistent connections
* Partial ETag validation support
* Partial byte ranges support
* RFC2068 Cache-Control (not yet up to date wrt RFC2616)
* and a couple of other minor things

Not yet supported:
* Storage of partial objects (for full byte range support)
* Storage of Vary objects
* Chunked transfer encoding (there exists a patch for this, but I don't
know the state of that)
* Extended request methods (although the methods for WebDAV will be
understood by Squid-2.3)
