Yes, you are absolutely right. Everything "works" until the peer
decides to refresh the entry during the TCP session. Then it tries to
connect to the non-existent *.squid.internal host, which obviously
fails.

Bug is definitely there. Confirmed by sniffing the inter-peer
communication. I may try to fix it but give me some high-level advice
in which classes/files to look for. I get lost at
http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/code/annotated.html :)
