Hmm. I guess I'm not describing what I want to do clearly enough.
The purpose is, as you say, to shove a caching proxy in between the
clients and the server. What I can quite happily do is give the proxy
it's own certificate that is trusted by the server - essentially
delegating responsibility for file distribution to the proxy. Then
the proxy can authenticate the clients and serve the cached data. The
thing I can't seem to make work is getting squid to use a cert when it
is trying to establish a connection to the up-stream server...
Thanks again for any help ;-)

You'll need to set it up in a reverse proxy configuration.
See the sslcert option in the cache_peer directive
(http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/cache_peer/).
