Probably the solution is not simple.

As you know, the development of Squid 3 is stopped since April 2008
after the bazaar migration.

This means that ALL subsequent code changes to Squid 3 are fully
untested on Windows.
Two months ago I was able to fix all the build failures of Squid 3
when building using MinGW, but nothing was done on functionality side.

Today, according to Canonical people, bazaar should really work on
Windows, but the there are too much outstanding code changes to be
checked for a single developer: looking to Squid 3.1 project summary,
there are 1022 changesets with 204446 line insertion and 295342 line deletion.

For my point of view, currently the Windows port of Squid > 3.0 must
be considered fully broken because is incomplete and untested.

Regards

Guido
