Only one of the two squid processes runs as 'squid' the parent still

This is the way it should be.
This is a problem because now the 'squid -k' commands don't work. 'squid
-k' switches to the 'squid' uid and can't send signals to the parent
squid running as root.
Which Squid versions? (including patches)
I would suspect you are running a nightly snapshot or STABLE10 patched
with the chroot -k patch, and that there maybe is problems with this
patch.
