host header forgery false positives

Hi there

I am finding squid-3.5.13 is false positive-ing on ssl-bump way too
often. I'm just using "peek-and-splice" on intercepted port 443 to
create better squid logfiles (ie I'm not actually bump-ing) but that
enables enough of the code to cause the Host forgery code to kick in -
but it doesn't work well in a real network

As you can see below, here's a handful of sites that we're seeing this
trigger on, and as it's my home network I can guarantee there's no odd
DNS setups or forgery going on. This is just real-world websites doing
what they do (ie are totally outside our control or influence)

I don't know how the forgery-checking code works, but I guess what's
happened is the DNS lookups the squid server does doesn't contain the
same IP addresses the client resolved the same DNS name to. I must say
that is odd because all our home computers use the squid server as their
DNS server - just as the squid service does - so there shouldn't be any
such conflict - but I imagine caching could be to blame (maybe the
clients cache old values longer/shorter timeframes than squid does).

This is a bit of a show-stopper to ever using bump: having perfectly
good websites being unavailable really isn't an option (in the case of
"peek-and-splice" over intercepted they seem to hang forever when this
error occurs). Perhaps an option to change it's behaviour would be
better? eg enable/disable and maybe "ignore client and use the IP
addresses squid thinks are best" could work?
