... the programmers have messed up their line-ending, and it's this that is causing Squid (2.5-STABLE8) to choke. But then again it might be something else.
2.5.STABLE9 has workarounds for this specific error... but it won't make the above header any better and clients still won't get the correct cookies..
Excellent, thank-you Henrik. I confirm that -STABLE9 resolves the problem successfully. Hooray!
Now I can always dream about writing to the owners of the web site and tell them to fix their web page. Somehow, I don't think that's going to work.
It's always worth a try. If they get sufficient complaints that their site is not working they may react. I have found most site operators quite responsive when given a proper explanation of what the error is on their site and why it is an error.
It turns out that after a week or so, I received a fairly responsive message saying that they would look into it. Maybe some good will come of it.
Thanks again, David
