The TPROXY_ASSIGN message is indicating that squid has asked the kernel to assign the client's ip address to the server-side connection, and the kernel has returned an error. The kernel needs to be patched with the kernel-side tproxy patch, otherwise this will always fail. Iptables must also be patched to support tproxy, and you must use the TPROXY iptables target, and "-t tproxy" (instead of the REDIRECT with "-t nat"). These patches can be found at http://www.balabit.com/downloads/tproxy/ These errors are not fatal, they just indicate that squid is not spoofing the client's ip address.
