It's more than a please. Stability issues found with vendor versions of
Squid is not diagnosed or fixed by the Squid developers unless the
problem is also found in the latest squid-cache.org release. We support
the current STABLE release, nothing else. Current Squid is 2.6.STABLE1,
with 2.6.STABLE2 just around the corner.

RedHat and most other vendors is usually doing a good job, but it's not
a job we can do for them. We support the latest official release, not
forked releases.

I no longer maintain my RPMs as Fedora Core is usually quite up to date
and available via yum, and additionally the SRPMS from there should work
on nearly any RedHat like distro..
