They don't distribute the kernel source as a binary rpm any longer. Only
as a source rpm just like how it's done for all other rpms.

Correct.

Shouldn't be needed.

Good, you found the problem.

Not sure this is a problem.. You should be able to ask Squid to register
to that router IP. In worst case adding a route if that IP is not
normally going via the router for some strange reason..

Not sure why you needed to add another interface. You can have as many
IP addresses and network you like per NIC.. Only if you need to
physically connect differently is a second NIC needed..
