+1.

Attached is a quick (untested) patch for 3.HEAD to make Squid stop
sending it on outbound requests to peers, and also ignore it's content
on HTTP-strict builds.

For origin server connections the non-strict builds will retain the
status-quo: interpret it, but treat it as an HTTP/0.9 thing to be
upgraded to HTTP/1.1 Connection:.

squidclient is also fixed not to send it.
